Suggested: Upcoming government exams
Correct Answer: (1)
Solution : The error lies in the first part of the sentence.
The error lies in the use of the definite article "the" before gentleman. If the sentence doesn't refer to a specific gentleman known to both the speaker and the listener, the indefinite article "a" is more appropriate.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: I met a gentleman today evening on my way back home.
