Each item in this section has a sentence with three underlined parts labelled as (a), (b) and (c). Read each sentence to find out whether there is any error in any underlined part and indicate your response on the Answer Sheet against the corresponding letter, i.e., (a) or (b) or (c). If you find no error, your response should be indicated as (d).
Learning many languages (a) / promotes linguistic, cultural and social harmonies (b) / among people speaking different languages. (c) / No error. (d)
- A(a)
- B(b)
- C(c)
- DNo error (d)
Explanation
The error is in part (b): 'harmony' is uncountable in this sense (linguistic, cultural and social harmony), so the plural 'harmonies' is wrong. Parts (a) and (c) are grammatically fine — note that 'promotes' correctly agrees with the singular subject 'Education'. Hence (B) is correct.
