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).

C) he will never feel at home anywhere else in the world. D) No error
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) he will never feel at home anywhere else in the world.

Explanation:

Error is in third part. By writing ‘who’ in the second part it has already been made clear that the sentence talks about ‘a man’. The use of ‘he’ becomes redundant or repetitive. By omitting ‘he’ the sentence becomes grammatically correct.
