Q:

Read each sentence to find out whether there is any error in any underlined part and indicate your response in the Answer Sheet against the corresponding letter i.e., (a) or (b) or (c). If you find no error, your response should be indicated as (d).

A) Being a rainy day B) we did not feel like going out or doing anything
C) except playing chess in our room. D) No error
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Being a rainy day

Explanation:

The error is in first part. If we start the sentence with being, it means that we were rainy which is incorrect. The sentence indicates that the day was Rainy, and the day will be denoted by ‘It’. So ‘It being a rainy day’ will be the correct idiomatic expression. Otherwise the meaning of the sentence changes.

Crude mineral oil comes out of the earth as a thick brown or black liquid with a strong smell. It is a complex mixture of many different substances, each with its own individual qualities. Most of them are combinations of hydrogen and carbon in varying proportions. Such hydrocarbons are also found in other forms such as bitumen, asphalt and natural gas. Mineral oil originates from the carcasses of tiny animals and from plants that live in the sea. Over million of years, these dead creatures form large deposits under sea­bed and ocean currents cover them with a blanket of sand and silt. As this material hardens, it becomes sedimentary rock and effectively shuts out the oxygen, thus preventing the complete decomposition of the marine deposits underneath. The layers of sedimentary rocks become thicker, and heavier. Their pressure produces heat, which transforms the tiny carcasses into crude oil in a process that is still going on today.


How does crude oil come out of the earth ?

A) Thick brown or black liquid with mild smell B) Thick red brown liquid with strong smell
C) Mixture of different colours D) Thick brown or black liquid with a strong smell
