SSC CHSL 2024 PYQ — Question 24

SSC CHSL - 09 July 2024 - Shift 2 • English • Q24

The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error.

Everyone have/ to join health orientation/ classes before/ going for trekking.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Everyone have.

The word "everyone" is a singular pronoun. Singular subjects require singular verbs. Therefore, instead of "have", it should be "has".

Even though "everyone" refers to a group of people, it is treated as singular in terms of subject-verb agreement. Hence, the correct verb form is "has", not "have".

Hence, the correct sentence is:- Everyone has to join health orientation classes before going for trekking.
