Question :
In these questions some of the sentences have errors and some have none. Find out which part of a sentence has an error and indicate it corresponding to the appropriate letters. If there is no error, indicate corresponding to the last option.
No sooner did the manager (1) / enter the room (2) / when the employees stood up (3) / No error(4)
Option 1: No sooner did the manager
Option 2: enter the room
Option 3: when the employees stood up
Option 4: No error
Correct Answer: when the employees stood up
Solution : There is an error in the option 3.
We need to use ‘than’ instead of when. As ‘No sooner than’ is a pure connective which is used to indicate that the second described event occurs right after the first.
Hence the correct sentence is
No sooner did the manager enter the room than the employees stood up.
No sooner he had realized (1) / his negligence than he began (2) / to take necessary measures (3) / No error (4)
Option 1: No sooner he had realized
Option 2: his negligence than he began
Option 3: to take necessary measures
Option 4: No Error
