SSC CPO - 04 Oct 2023 - Shift 1 • English • Q20

Parts of the following sentence have been given as options. One of them may contain an error. Select the part that contains the error from the given options. If you don’t find any error, mark ‘No error’ as your answer.

Luckily, I managed to get a room in the college hostel, and I move in there.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. and I move in there.

The error is in the segment "and I move in there."

The error lies in the tense of the verb "move."

Since the sentence is in the past tense ("managed"), the verb should also be in the past tense.

Therefore, it should be "and I moved in there" to maintain the correct tense consistency.
