The erroneous part is 'at our colony'.

Key Points

• The given sentence is grammatically incorrect.
• Here, 'in our colony' should be used instead of 'at our colony'.
• The preposition 'in' is used to show place inside or to a position inside a particular area or object. [(पूर्वसर्ग) (स्‍थान का निर्देश) अंदर या किसी क्षेत्र या वस्‍तु के भीतर कोई स्थिति में, के अंदर]
  • Example: He lives in a grand mansion.

Correct Sentence: A businessman in our colony was found COVID positive.

The correct answer is Option 3.

Key Points

Let's take a look at the table below:

Hint

Mnemonic trick

Clearly, Halcyon best expresses the above-mentioned phrase.

The correct answer is: QSPR.

Key Points

• Part Q: Introduces the subject of the sentence, specifying who is being discussed.
• Part S: Provides additional information about the main target consumers mentioned earlier. It further defines the demographic group.
• Part P: Introduces the action taken by food companies in response to the target consumer demographic. It sets the stage for explaining the strategy employed.
• Part R: Completes the sentence by explaining the purpose of the advertisements mentioned earlier. It indicates the desired outcome or effect on consumers.
• So, when combined, the sentence reads: "The main target consumers of food companies are children and youth of the country, so they design the advertisement of products in such a way that consumers are stimulated to buy them repeatedly."

Therefore, the correct answer is option 4.

The correct answer is "broke into."

Key Points

• The phrasal verb "broke into" means to enter a building or place forcibly or illegally. (किसी भवन या स्थान में जबरन या अवैध रूप से प्रवेश करना)
  • Example: Two raiders broke into his home.
• It is the correct option to use in this sentence because Robinhood entered the mansion without permission.
• The correct preposition to use with "broke" in this context is "into", not "to" or "up to."
• The correct answer is Option 3.

Correct sentence: Robinhood broke into the mansion to collect some food and money for the poor.

Additional Information

• Option 1 (broke upto) is grammatically incorrect and does not make sense in this context.
• Option 2 (broke in) is close to the correct answer, but it is missing the preposition "into" which is necessary to convey the meaning of entering forcibly.
• Option 4 (broke to) is incorrect because "to" is not the correct preposition to use with "broke" in this context.

The correct answer is 'Option d' i.e. 'We have been taught valuable lessons by time and experiences.'

Key Points

• The original sentence is in active voice and in Present Perfect tense.
• In the passive voice, the object 'us' becomes the subject 'we'.
• The subject 'Time and experiences' moves after and preceded by 'by'.
• 'Have taught' in active voice changes to 'have been taught' in the passive voice.
• Therefore, the correct answer is-'We have been taught valuable lessons by time and experiences.'

Additional Information

• Option a: The subject 'us' is not properly transformed to 'we' in passive voice.
• Option b: The sentence makes no sense and misinterprets the verb 'have taught.'
• Option c: The sentence makes sense but the correct subject 'we' is replaced by the indirect object 'to us.'

The correct answer is 'No error'.

Key Points

• The given sentence is grammatically correct.
• Here, we can see that after 'Despite' no preposition is used which is correct. Generally, in the error question 'of' is used after 'Despite' which is incorrect.
• And, the rest of the sentence is also correct.

Correct Sentence: Despite the doctor's stern warning, he continued taking sugar in his tea.

The correct answer is "resilience".

Key Points

• 'Resilience' refers to the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties or challenges.
• In this context, this word perfectly illustrates Sarah's ability to bounce back and start her own business after losing her job.
• Therefore, the completed sentence reads: 
  • "After losing her job, Sarah had the resilience to pick herself up and start her own business."

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

Additional Information

• 'Dread': This term indicates fear or anxiety about something, which does not align with the idea of Sarah's ability to pick herself up.
• 'Academia': This word refers to the environment or community concerned with the pursuit of research, education, and scholarship.
• 'Insensitivity': This is the lack of sensitivity or ability to respond to affective changes in the surrounding environment.
  • It does not work in this context that talks about Sarah's positive attitude and action.

The correct solution is option 4.

'Toddler' means a young child who is just beginning to walk.

The correct answer is 'Propelled'.

Key Points

• Flung: to throw somebody/something suddenly and carelessly or with great force. (एकाएक और लापरवाही से या ज़ोर से कोई वस्‍तु फेंकना; पटकना, दे मारना)
  • Example: He flung his coat on the floor.
• Propelled: to move, drive or push somebody/something forward or in a particular direction. (आगे की ओर या दिशा-विशेष में व्‍यक्ति या वस्‍तु को धकेलना या चलाना)

  • Strategies: a plan that you use in order to achieve something. (लक्ष्‍य प्राप्ति कराने वाली योजना, रणनीति, रण योजना)
  • Innovative: new and original. (अभिनव)

The correct answer is "found everywhere in a huge amount."

Key Points

• The original sentence uses "at everyplace" which is not grammatically correct. "Everywhere" should be used instead.
• The phrase "in huge amount" should come after "everywhere" to indicate the quantity of apricots available.
• The correct verb form is "found" which is in the past tense and agrees with the subject "apricot".
• The correct preposition to use is "in" to indicate that apricots are available in Kinnaur.
• The correct answer is Option 2.

Correct sentence: The most important fruit in Kinnaur is apricot. It is found everywhere in a huge amount.
