Q:

Four statements are given below at A, B, C and D. There may be some errors in the given statement(s). The incorrect statement is your answer.

A) Racing for the bus, her bag flew open and all the documents were lost.	B) As she raced for the bus, her bag flew open making the documents lost.
C) Racing for the bus, her bag flung open and all the documents were lost.	D) The documents were lost, when racing for the bus, her bag flung open.

Answer & Explanation Answer:

Explanation:

Options A, C and E in the absence of a proper subject add the ‘bag’ automatically to the verb ‘racing for the bus’. So, it does not make any sense as it would mean that the bag is racing for the bus. Option B is incorrect because of the fragment ‘making the documents lose’. Option D doesn't convey the proper meaning.
