Spot Error

Question:

Spot the error in the given parts of sentence A B C D and choose the most appropriate answer:

A) Your scissors

B) is blunt

C) my razor

D) is sharp

Options:

A and B

A and D

B only

No error

Correct Answer:

B only

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) - B only

A. Your scissors: The word "scissors" is plural, so it should be followed by a plural verb "are" instead of "is."

B. is blunt: This is incorrect because it uses the singular verb "is" for the plural noun "scissors." It should be "are blunt."

C. my razor: Correct, as "razor" is singular, and it matches with the singular verb.

D. is sharp: Correct, as it appropriately uses the singular verb "is" with the singular noun "razor".

"Your scissors are blunt; my razor is sharp."
