Question

    In these questions some of the sentences have errors and some have none. Find out which part of a sentence has an error and indicate it corresponding to the appropriate letters. If there is no error, indicate corresponding to the last option.

    The decline of his moral (A)/ was caused by a lot of

    factors that were (B)/ once fascinating to him (C)/ No Error (D)
    A The decline of his moral Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B was caused by a lot of factors that were Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C once fascinating to him Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D No Error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Replace ‘of’ by ‘in’. Because ‘decline of an empire/decline of a party’ can be used but with nouns like ‘prices’, ‘moral’, we use ‘decline in’. Hence option ‘A’ has an error.
