Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. A.

  • The error lies in part A of the statement because of the wrong use of Noun.
  • We know that , "One + of + plural noun" (one of is always followed by the Plural Noun.)
  • So, we need to change "friend" with "friends" for making the statement grammatically correct.

The correct sentence will be- One of my friends has gone to Canada.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1 i.e. A.
