In the given question, a sentence is divided into four parts and given in the alternatives (A), (B), (C), and (D). There is an error in one part. Choose the alternative containing that part of the sentence that has the error. Choosing the alternative with the error will be the answer.
Rosemery did not see the beautiful roses in the garden and came in the room crying and complained that the roses had lost their fragrance.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The error lies in the use of the preposition "in" in the phrase "came in the room."
When describing movement from one place to another (entering a space), the preposition "into" should be used instead of "in."
"In" generally indicates a position or location inside something (static).
"Into" indicates movement, direction, or entry (dynamic).
Correct sentence should be:
"Rosemerry did not see the beautiful roses in the garden and came into the room crying and complained that the roses had lost their fragrance."
