    Directions : In the following question, a sentence is

    given, divided into 5 parts. Part (E) 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. In the last three years of running (A) / events in Mumbai, I have (B) / seen so much poets come out of (C) / their shells to overcome their (D) /fears and perform for an audience. (E)       
    A A Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B B Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The error is in part C of the sentence. Replace MUCH with MANY. Though both adjectives are used to represent large quantities of things, MUCH is used for uncountable nouns, whereas MANY for countable nouns, such as POETS. Thus, D is the right answer.
