Question:

Identify the correct sentence from the options given below:

Options:

There is the cold wind blows from South

There is a colder wind blows from South

There is a cold wind blowing from the South 

There a cold wind blowing from the South

Correct Answer:

There is a cold wind blowing from the South 

Explanation:

The correct sentence is: "There is a cold wind blowing from the South." OPTION 3

 

Here's why the other options are incorrect:

  • There is the cold wind blows from South: This sentence has two errors. "The" is unnecessary before "cold wind," and "blows" should be in the present participle form "blowing" to agree with the present tense of "is."
  • There is a colder wind blows from South: This sentence also has two errors. Similar to the first option, "blows" needs to be "blowing," and "colder" should be "cold" because you're comparing the present wind to itself, not a different wind.
  • There a cold wind blowing from the South: This sentence simply has the subject and verb reversed. It should be "There is a cold wind blowing from the South."
