Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error. If there is no error, select 'No error'.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Now its referring to the same.

  • The sentence uses "its" which is a determiner used to signify belonging. 
  • Here, instead of its, "it's" should be used. "It's" is the contracted form of "it is" or "it has". It is used in the sentence so it becomes "Now it is referring to the same" which places the correct meaning to the phrase. 
  • The other options have no errors.
