Test: Sentence Improvement- 2

As per the given sentence in above question , we can say that
Replace the word touch :- touch on

He could not see anything in the dark room.

While crossing the highway a five year old child was knocked down by a car.

The expression more than one + noun, though plural in sense, is followed by a singular verb.

Perpetrate (Verb) : to commit a crime or do something wrong or evil
penetrate (Verb) : to go into/through something
perpetuate (Verb) : to make something such as a bad situation, a belief, etc. continue for a long time
⇒ This system perpetuated itself for several centuries.
precipitate (Verb) : to make something, especially something bad, happen suddenly or sooner than it should
⇒ His resignation precipitated a leadership crisis
Here, perpetrate is the right usage.

Let’s examine the sentence: “Five years ago on this date, I am sitting in a small Japanese car, driving across Poland towards Berlin.” The sentence mentions an event that happened five years ago. Hence, it would use the verbs of past tense. So, the verbs “am sitting” would become “was sitting” to correct the sentence. Hence, Option A is the correct answer.
 

Of the two past events, the event that happened earlier, .... should be expressed in Past Perfect.
“ had bought yesterday”
