Question

    In the following question, a sentence is given, divided into 5 parts. Part (A) is grammatically correct. Out of the other four parts, one part contains an error. Mark the option containing the part with the error. If none of the parts have errors, mark ‘No error’ as your answer. 

    Time magazine dedicated its (A)/ person of the year

    cover to women (B)/who broken the silence surrounding (C)/ the pervasiveness of sexual harassment and (D)/ violence, especially in the workplace. (E)
    A B Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B E Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    In C, replace BROKEN with BROKE, as the former is the third form of the verb and is always preceded by a helping verb such has HAD/ HAVE. We need the second form of the verb BROKE here. Thus, (d) is the right answer.
