Question : Directions: In the following question, some parts of the sentence may have some 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".
In 1906, a earthquake (1) / destroyed much (2) / of San Francisco. (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 reason for this is that the word "earthquake" begins with a vowel sound, so it should be preceded by the article "an" instead of "a".
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "In 1906, an earthquake destroyed much of San Francisco."
