Question

Read each sentence to find out whether there is any grammatical or idiomatic error.

• A. The car flew off the road
• B. and fell into the valley because
• C. Harish was driving faster
• D. No error

Hint:

Comparative adjectives like "faster," "better," "smarter," should be followed by "than" to complete the comparison.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

The error lies in part (c). The phrase "Harish was driving faster" is incomplete because the comparative word "than" is missing. Faster always requires a comparison. Correct usage: "Harish was driving faster than he should have" or "faster than others." \[ \Rightarrow \boxed{\text{Error in part (c)}} \]
