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).

- DNo error
Explanation
Part (a) contains the error. The word 'Trucked' is incorrect; the intended word is 'Tucked', meaning 'placed neatly'. 'Trucked' refers to transporting by truck, which makes no sense for letters under clothes. The correct phrase is 'Tucked neatly under the pile of clothes'. Parts (b) and (c) are grammatically correct, with proper subject-verb agreement ('are the letters'). The error is in part (a), so option A is correct.
