Identify the errors in the given sentence and choose the sentence that rectifies these errors.
I have known her for many years. This time, she took unusual decision in unprejudiced way.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1, i.e.,
“I have known her for many years. This time, she took an unusual decision in an unprejudiced way.”
The original sentence has two errors related to article use:
'took unusual decision' – this singular countable noun phrase is missing the indefinite article “an” before 'unusual decision.'
'in unprejudiced way' – this phrase also needs an article; it should be “in an unprejudiced way.'
According to standard rules for indefinite articles: use a or an with singular, countable nouns that begin with consonant/vowel sounds, respectively.
