    Question

    Direction : In each of the questions, a sentence has been divided into four parts, one of which may contain an error. Identify that fragment and mark it as your answer. The words in bold are contextually and grammatically correct. Mark (E) if the sentence contains no error.

    To an insurance company, (A) / the law relating to (B) / the principles of subrogation and (C) / contribution are of great importance. (D) / No Error (E)

    A B Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C A Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E E Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The subject of the sentence is ‘the law’, NOT ‘the principles of subrogation and contribution’. Hence, the usage of the verb ‘are’ in fragment D is erroneous. The correct verb in place of ‘are’ should have been ‘is’.
