SSC CHSL - 5 Aug 2021 - Shift 1 • English • Q10

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

The sports day events / will be conducted / from 3:30 p.m. and 5:30 p.m. / on Saturday. 

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. from 3:30 p.m. and 5:30 p.m.

The given sentence is grammatically incorrect.

The preposition "from" is followed by "to". as they talk about a range.

Hence "from.....to" should be used.

It should be replaced by "from 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.".

Thus, the correct sentence will be: The sports day events will be conducted from 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. on Saturday.
