SSC CHSL 2022 PYQ — Question 14

SSC CHSL - 24 May 2022 - Shift 1 • English • Q14

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

Each member / of the team / receive a memorabilia / after the match is over.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. receive a memorabilia.

The third part of the sentence contains an error in subject-verb agreement.

The determiner each and noun (member) highlights the singularity. 

Thus, the verb should always agree with the noun, which is singular.

Thus, singular verb 'receives' should instead be used.

Thus, the correct sentence is :

Each member of the team receives a memorabilia after the match is over.
