SSC CPO - 9 Dec 2025 - Shift 1 • English • Q180

Find the part of the sentence that contains an error:
The report lacks a clear justification (1)/ for the measures undertaken (2)/ and overlooks the impact (3)/ on a environment. (4)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

(4)

Explanation:

The error is in the phrase:

“on a environment”

This is incorrect because:

“environment” starts with a vowel sound → we should use “an”, not “a”.

Correct sentence:

The report lacks a clear justification for the measures undertaken and overlooks the impact on an environment.

Hindi explanation:

“a environment” गलत है, सही होगा “an environment” क्योंकि ‘environment’ vowel sound से शुरू होता है।
