Question

Find out the error in the following sentence, if any. If there is no error, your answer is 'E'.
Soma ordered her servant (A) to bring her some (B) hot water as she has (C) to take some medicine. (D) No Error.(E)

• A. A
• B. B
• C. C
• D. D
• E. E

Answer 1

The correct option is C C

Here, "has" in part 'C' is inappropriate.

Since the given sentence begins with the past tense, so the same tense should be maintained throughout the sentence.

Using 'has' in the given sentence makes it grammatically incorrect because the first part of the sentence is in the past tense. Therefore 'had' should be used in the place of 'has' in part 'C'. Hence we can conclude that option 'C' carries the error.

Thus option 'C' is the correct answer.
