Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. take a sharpest turn.
- The error lies in option 1.
- We know that 'sharpest' is the superlative degree of the word 'sharp'.
- But in the given sentence, we do not need the superlative degree.
- Therefore, in the given sentence, the usage of "a sharpest turn" is incorrect instead we need to use "a sharp turn".
The correct sentence is:- After entering the town, go straight and then take a sharp turn towards your left to reach the mall.
Hence, the correct answer is Option 1 i.e. take a sharpest turn.
