SSC GD Constable (English) - 18th November 2021 Shift 3 • English • Q25

 Select the most appropriate option that can substitute the underlined segment in the given
sentence. If there is no need to substitute it, select ‘No substitution required’.

Are you get irritated if someone disturbs you?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Do you get irritated.

  • The underlined part of the given sentence is erroneous in nature.
  • In an interrogative sentence, "are" is always followed by the "V1+ing" form of the verb, but that is not the case with the given sentence.
  • Whereas, "do" is always agreed upon  V1 form of the verb.
  • Now since the given sentence is in the present simple tense, the verb "do" should be used instead of "are". 

The correct sentence is:

Do you get irritated if someone disturbs you?
