    Read each sentence to find out whether there is any error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence. Mark the part with the error as your answer. If there is no error, mark "No Error" as your answer. (Ignore the errors of punctuation).

    The political revolution in Bangladesh dismantle the country’s Supreme Court too, as protesters forced the Chief Justice and two other judges to resign.

    A The political revolution in Bangladesh Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B dismantle the country’s Supreme Court too, Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C as protesters forced the Chief Justice Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D and two other judges to resign Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E no error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The verb "dismantle" is in the present tense, which does not agree with the subject of the sentence and the past context of the sentence. The correct form should be "dismantled" to match the past tense used in the sentence ("forced" in part 3). The corrected sentence is: "The political revolution in Bangladesh dismantled the country’s Supreme Court too, as protesters forced the Chief Justice and two other judges to resign."
