    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. Many years ago (A) / when I was a child, I (B) / remember visiting my (C) / aunt's newly build (D) /home in a quieter part of town. (E )
    A A Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B B Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The error is in part D of the sentence. Replace the base form verb BUILD with its past participle form BUILT, as we need a word that can modify the noun HOME. Past Participle form verbs can function as adjectives and modify nouns. Thus, D is the right answer.
