Parts of the following sentence are given as options. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error.
I am not too eager to read that book being that it has not got good reviews
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. being that.
- The issue lies in the phrase "being that," which is awkward and less commonly used. The more appropriate expression would be "because" or "since."
- So the corrected sentence would be "I am not too eager to read that book because it has not got good reviews."
