Question : Directions: In the following question, some parts of the sentence may have errors. Find out which part of the sentence has an error and select the appropriate option. If the sentence is free from error, select "No Error."
The book, being written (1) / in simple language, is suitable for children (2) / as it contains many good advices. (3) / No Error (4)
Option 1: (1)
Option 2: (2)
Option 3: (3)
Option 4: (4)
Correct Answer: (3)
Solution : The error lies in the third part of the sentence.
The error is because of the use of "advices".
"Advice" is an uncountable noun, so it doesn't take a plural form. Here, "advice" should be replaced with "a lot of good advice".
Therefore, the correct sentence is "The book, written in simple language, is suitable for children as it contains a lot of good advice ."
