You have to identify which fragment, apart from the bold one, is correct in terms of grammar and usage. If all the parts are correct, then mark option 5, “All are correct” as the answer.Solution
B- the preposition ‘at’ is incorrect. It should be ‘in’. C- since we are talking about ‘reports’, ‘are’ should be the verb instead of ‘is’. D- the preposition ‘from’ is contextually incorrect. We should mention that the cat was spotted. So, the preposition ‘of’ should be used here. It is recorded that the last cheetahs were shot in India in 1947, but there are credible reports of sightings of the cat till about 1967.
