In the following question, some part of the sentence may have errors. Find out which part of the sentence has an error and select the appropriate option. If a sentence is free from error, select 'No Error'.

A unique feature of a mobile phone(A)/ is that it enables seamless telephone calls even(B)/ when the user are moving around wide areas. (C)/ No error(D)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3, i.e. C.

  • The error is in part C of the sentence.
  • The word 'are' should be replaced with 'is'. 
  • This is because the word 'user' is being used to talk about each particular user in the sentence. But since 'user' is a singular word, we will have to use 'is' instead of 'are'.

The correct sentence will be, 'A unique feature of a mobile phone is that it enables seamless telephone calls even when the user is moving around wide areas.'
