English and Logical Reasoning Prep GuideEnglishSpotting Errors
` Directions: In the following question, some part of the sentence may have errors. Find out which part of the sentence has an error and select the appropriate option. If a sentence is free from error, select 'No Error'. You have failed to produce (A) / no evidence to support (B) / the charge that he (C) / is responsible for the error. (D) / No error (E)
Options
- AYou have failed to produce
- Bno evidence to support
- Cthe charge that he
- Dis responsible for the error.
Correct answer
B. no evidence to support
Step-by-step solution
In the predicate part of this sentence, use of two negatives - 'failed' and 'no evidence' together is redundant and meaningless. In part B, 'no', therefore, must be replaced with 'any' to make it a grammatically correct sentence. Hence, option B is correct.
