Select the word segment that substitutes (replaces) the bracketed word segment correctly and completes the sentence meaningfully. Select the option 'no correction required if the sentence is correct as given.
She ran 12 km at a stretch, (which are a greater) distance for a rookie.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. which is quite some.
The bracketed part of the sentence is grammatically incorrect.
"12 kms" is singular, so the plural verb "are" is incorrect.
The correct verb must be "is".
"Which" has been correctly used here as we are talking about distance (non-living concept).
Now, only option 2 is correct because it has both "which" and "is".
The correct sentence will be: She ran 12 km at a stretch, which is quite some distance for a rookie.
