Identify the part of the sentence that contains an error.
Ananya and her cousin Kabir / from the third floor / takes the same school bus / every morning at seven.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → takes the same school bus
The subject is “Ananya and her cousin Kabir”. These are two people joined by “and”, so the subject is plural. A plural subject takes a plural verb. So the verb must be take, not “takes”.
Option 1: Ananya and her cousin Kabir — No error.
Option 2: from the third floor — No error.
Option 3: takes the same school bus — Error. “takes” should be “take”.
Option 4: every morning at seven — No error.
Corrected: Ananya and her cousin Kabir from the third floor take the same school bus every morning at seven.
