I don't think Neha is a wise as (1) / Sonali, so she is not (2) / competent for this job. (3) / No Error (4)
Option 1: (1)
Option 2: (2)
Option 3: (3)
Option 4: (4)
Correct Answer: (1)
Solution : The error lies in the first part of the sentence.
The article "a" should be replaced with "as" to convey the intended meaning that Neha isn't as wise as compared to Sonali. When making a comparison, the conjunction "as" is firstly followed by the positive degree of the adjective and then by as.
For eg.-Sita is as kind as her mother.
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "I don't think Neha is as wise as Sonali, so she is not competent for this job."
