The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error.
Hardik's horoscope says / that the stars / will be exercised / a benign influence on his life.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. will be exercised.
The original segment "will be exercised" is incorrect because it does not appropriately convey the intended meaning.
The verb "exercised" implies physical activity, which is not suitable in this context.
Instead, the verb "exerting" is more appropriate as it signifies the exertion or application of influence by the stars.
