Question

Identify the part of the sentence that has a mistake. \[ \text{All the children / have returned / back from / Mysore city. \] \[ \text{1 _ _ _ _ 2 _ _ _ _ 3 _ _ _ _ 4} \]

• A. 1
• B. 2
• C. 3
• D. 4

Hint:

Avoid using “returned back” because return already means come back.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Concept:
The word \[ \text{return} \] already means to come back. So using \[ \text{returned back} \] is generally considered redundant.

Step 1: Identify the incorrect phrase. The sentence says: \[ \text{have returned back from} \] Here, the word \[ \text{back} \] is unnecessary.

Step 2: Correct the sentence. The correct sentence should be: \[ \text{All the children have returned from Mysore city.} \] So the mistake is in part \(3\).

Step 3: Final answer. \[ \boxed{3} \]
