General English (Mixed Test)
Directions: The following sentence has been split into three parts (A), (B) and (C). If there is any grammatical error in any of these parts, that is the answer. If there is no error, the answer is (D).
The little children in play-way schools (A)/ are taught how to read, how to write (B)/ and to speak basic English. (C)/ No error (D)
This is the correct option as this part of the sentence has the error. This sentence violates the rule of parallelism that demands consistency in a sentence’s structure. Any ideas, places, activities, etc. must be written in the same grammatical form. Thus, the correct sentence will be, ”The little children in play-way schools are taught how to read, how to write and how to speak basic English”.
