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) All the boys B) returned back home
C) well in time for lunch. D) No error
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) returned back home

Explanation:

Error is in second part. Returning means coming back to place from where you began. So, the use of back after returned becomes redundant. Without using back, the meaning remains the same. We can omit ‘back’ in part b, and use ‘returned home.’
