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).

- Bapplying for the job, your application
- Cmust received by Friday.
- DNo error
Explanation
Part (c) contains the error. The modal verb 'must' must be followed by the base form of the verb, but here it is followed by 'received', which is the past participle. In passive voice the correct structure is 'must be received'. Parts (a) and (b) are grammatically correct. The error lies in part (c), making option C the answer.
