SSC CHSL - 22 Nov 2025 - Shift 3 • English • Q2

Identify the incorrect sentence.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The sentence "Eating too much his health was spoiled" is incorrect because the introductory participial phrase "Eating too much" modifies "his health", which does not make sense (health cannot eat). The phrase lacks a proper subject to refer to. The sentence should be structured to show that a person's action led to their health being spoiled, for example: "Eating too much, he spoiled his health" or "Because he ate too much, his health was spoiled."
