SSC CGL - 6th March 2020 Shift 3 • English • Q4

In the sentence identify the segment which contains the grammatical error.

She behaves in a such a cordial manner that everyone admires her.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. She behaves in a.

  1. The error lies in part 2 of the statement because of the wrong use of "Article".
  2. We need to remove "A"  for making the statement grammatically correct.

Grammatical Concept:- 

  • The indefinite article 'a' is used twice in the sentence. In the phrase, 'She behaves in a', 'a' must be removed.

  • An article is not used before adverbs like, 'such, most, rather...'

  • The chosen option contains the ERROR hence, it will be the correct answer.

The correct sentence will be- 

She behaves in such a cordial manner that everyone admires her.
