Question

Find out the error in the following sentence, if any. If there is no error, mark your answer as 'E.
Prabha was exorbitantly paid (A) for how skilful she received (B) the visitors and entertained (C) them. (D) No Error. (E)

• A. A
• B. B
• C. C
• D. D
• E. E

Answer 1

The correct option is B B

Part B of the sentence has the error as the use of the adjective 'skilful' is grammatically incorrect in the sentence. It should be replaced with the adverb 'skilfully' as it better describes the verb 'received'.

Hence option B is the correct answer and the other options are incorrect as the rest of the sentence is grammatically correct. Option E is incorrect because the sentence does have an error.
