Question

    In each question below, four words printed in bold type

    are given. One word printed in bold might either be wrongly spelt or inappropriate in the context of the sentence. Find out the word that is inappropriate or wrongly spelt, if any.  If the words printed in bold are correctly spelt and appropriate in the context of the sentence then mark (E), i.e. 'All are correct', as your answer. The author spent years researching for his new noval, hoping to create a compelling story.
    A spent Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B noval Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C hoping Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D compelling Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E All are correct Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The correct spelling is "novel" instead of "noval." The sentence tells us how the author spent (used) years researching for his new book, hoping (expecting) to create a compelling (interesting) story. Thus, B is the right answer.
