SSC CPO - 3 Oct 2023 - Shift 1 • English • Q35

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

They will not attend / the event / as they’re going / away at end of April.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e away at end of April.

  • The error lies in the preposition usage.
  • It should be "away at the end of April" instead of "away at end of April."
  • The phrase "at the end of April" indicates a specific point in time, so the article "the" is required before "end."
