Question

    This question consists of a sentence which is divided into

    four parts numbered (1) to (4). Only one part of the sentence is not acceptable in standard written English. Identify that part which contains an error.
    A He has been working Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B in the company for five Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C years, and he will be continuing Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D to do so in the future. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The error is in part (3). The phrase "will be continuing" is incorrect because the future continuous tense is unnecessary here. Since the sentence is referring to a continuing action in the future, the simple future tense "will continue" is more appropriate.
