SSC CHSL 2023 PYQ — Question 18

SSC CHSL - 08 Aug 2023 - Shift 2 • English • Q18

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

I have read that / a Leaning Tower of Pisa is a / popular tourist attraction / in the world.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. a Leaning Tower of Pisa is a.

"A Leaning Tower of Pisa" is incorrect because there is only one such tower.

It is a specific, unique landmark.

So, "The" should be used instead of "a" before "Leaning Tower of Pisa".

Corrected sentence: I have read that the Leaning Tower of Pisa is a popular tourist attraction in the world.
