She complained about her weak eyes and lamented about the necessity from spectacles.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. from spectacles.
- The error lies in option 2 because of the wrong use of "Preposition".
- We need to replace "From" with "Of" for making the statement grammatically correct.
Grammatical concept:-
- From- used to indicate the source of an event. Example: The light is coming from the sun.
- The sentence talks about the necessity regarding spectacles hence, in this case, the correct preposition here should be 'of'.
- Of- indicating an association between two entities, typically one of belonging. Example: This is the need of the hour.
- The chosen option contains the Grammatical Error hence, it will be the correct choice.
Correct Sentence:-
She complained about her weak eyes and lamented about the necessity of spectacles.
