The following sentence has been divided into four segments. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error.
She is singing / beautifully in / the concert hall / last night.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. She is singing.
The sentence refers to an event that took place 'last night,' which is in the past.
The verb 'is singing' is in the present tense, which is incorrect in this context.
The correct verb tense should be 'was singing' to match the past time frame.
Alternatively, we can use the simple past tense in this sentence as well to refer to a completed event without emphasizing its duration.
Correct Sentence:
She was singing beautifully in the concert hall last night.
Or.
She sang beautifully in the concert hall last night.
