`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

  1. AYou have failed to produce
  2. Bno evidence to support
  3. Cthe charge that he
  4. 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.
