    grammatical error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence. Spot the error from the given options. She challenged the notice (A)/ in the high court (B)/ therefore she ultimatiley lost the case(C)/ no error (D).
    A A Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B B Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    "Therefore" is used to indicate a conclusion or result that follows from a previous statement or situation. However, in this sentence, the use of "therefore" suggests a logical connection between challenging the notice in the high court and losing the case, which may not be the intended meaning. We should replaced therefore by but.
