Question:

A word or phrase has to be omitted from the sentence to make it grammatically correct. Choose the correct option :

I have been to quite too many monuments recently.

Options:

quite

too

to

have been

Correct Answer:

quite

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option 1: quite

In the sentence "I have been to quite too many monuments recently," the words "quite" and "too" are both intensifiers. Using them together to modify "many" creates a redundancy that is grammatically incorrect.

By omitting "quite," the sentence becomes "I have been to too many monuments recently," which is a perfectly clear and grammatically correct statement.
