The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error.
The manager asked / the cooking team, “Who / among you is to baked the / Christmas cake this year?”
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. among you is to baked the.
The phrase "is to" (which expresses future action or intention) should be followed by the base form of the verb. So, instead of "baked," the correct verb is "bake."
In English, when using "is to" (indicating a task or responsibility), the verb following it remains in its base form, not the past participle.
Hence, the correct sentence is:- The manager asked the cooking team, 'Who among you is to bake the Christmas cake this year?
