The sentence reads: "In an English paper, examiners should give as much weightage to language as they give to contents." Let's break it down to identify any grammatical error:
- Option A - In an English paper:
- This part is grammatically correct. "In an English paper" is a well-structured prepositional phrase that introduces the context of the sentence.
- Option B - examiners should give as much weightage to language:
- This part is correct. "Examiners should give as much weightage to language" is properly constructed, and the verb "give" correctly agrees with the subject "examiners."
- Option C - as they give to contents:
- This part is grammatically incorrect. The word "contents" should be in the singular form: "content." "Contents" typically refers to multiple items or sections, while "content" is the correct term when referring to the material or substance of something in a general sense.
- Option D - No error:
- There is an error in Option C, as explained above, so this option is not correct.
- Final Answer:
- The error is in Option C. The correct answer is C.
