Question

Identify the part of a sentence which has a grammatical error:

[A] There is only the banana
[B] and one apple in the refrigerator
[C] so let us go to the market
[D] and buy some more fruits

• A. A
• B. B
• C. C
• D. D
• E. No Error

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

A

The given sentence mentions that there is a banana and an apple in the refrigerator and the narrator wants to go buy more fruits from the market. But, in part [A] of the sentence, to indicate a single banana, article 'the' is used instead of 'a'. 'The' is incorrect in the given part because 'the' is used to indicate one specific thing when there are many. But in the given scenario, only one banana is present and so 'a' is the correct article to use.

Therefore, the correct answer is option A).
