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 trek is difficult (1) / but it is far worth (2) / the endeavour. (3) / No Error (4)
Option 1: (1)
Option 2: (2)
Option 3: (3)
Option 4: (4)
Correct Answer: (2)
Solution : The error lies in the second part of the sentence.
The word "far" is not appropriate in this context. The correct word to use here is "well" instead of "far" as "well" is used for a positive state of affairs. This helps convey the intended meaning that the rewards or benefits of the endeavour justify the effort or difficulty of the trek.
Therefore, the correct sentence is "The trek is difficult, but it is well worth the endeavour".
