Sol.457.(a) to people who are closed-minded
There is a prepositional error in the given sentence. The
preposition ‘to’ must be replaced with ‘with’ because we
generally use the preposition ‘with’ with the verb ‘interact’.
Hence, ‘interact with people who are closed-minded’ is the most
appropriate answer.
Sol.458.(d) No error.
The given sentence is grammatically correct.
Sol.459.(d) my research rely at phone calls
We generally use the preposition ‘on’ after the verb ‘rely’ and not
‘at’. Hence, ‘my research rely on phone calls’ is the most
appropriate answer.
Sol.460.(c) a spectacle
Some things are always written in pairs such as a pair of
binoculars, a pair of scissors, a pair of spectacles, etc. Similarly,
the given sentence talks about wearing spectacles. Hence, ‘a
pair of spectacles’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.461.(c) a lion
We generally use apostrophe(‘s) to show possession means
something belonging to someone. Similarly, the given sentence
talks about a skull which belongs to a lion. Hence, ‘a lion’s’ is the
most appropriate answer.
Sol.462.(c) when they come of contact
There is a prepositional error in the given sentence. The
preposition ‘of’ must be replaced with ‘in’. Hence, ‘when they
come in contact’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.463.(c) including much strong
The comparative degree adjective when we do a comparison
between two things, people, etc. Similarly in the given sentence,
‘stronger’ will be the comparative degree of ‘strong’. Hence,
‘including stronger’ is the most appropriate answer.

The given sentence is grammatically correct.
Sol.465.(a) No error.
The given sentence is grammatically correct.
Sol.466.(c) based at limit studies
There is a prepositional error in the given sentence. The

limited studies’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.467.(c) We use the article ‘a’ before
the words starting with a Consonant (B,D,F,N,etc.) for example, a
dirty shirt, a neglected department, etc. However, the article ‘an’
is used before words starting with a Vowel (A,E,I,O,U) or a Vowel
Sound for example, an educated person, an honest policy, etc.
Hence, ‘in a major(starting with a consonant) economic slump’
is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.468.(a) No error.
The given sentence is grammatically correct.
Sol.469.(d) No error.
The given sentence is grammatically correct.
Sol.470.(d) standing at front of us

preposition ‘at’ must be replaced with ‘in’. Hence, ‘standing in
front of us’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.471.(a) that giving off
The given sentence is in the simple present tense so the verb
must be used in the simple present form(V
1
). Hence, ‘gives(V
1
)’
is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.472.(b) was reluctant to have their pictures take
“Have + V
3
(third form of the verb)” is the correct grammatical
structure for the given sentence. Hence, ‘was reluctant to have
their pictures taken(V
3
)’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.473.(d) more splendid church in Italy
‘Superlative degree adjective’ denotes the form of an adjective or
adverb that expresses the highest or a very high degree of
quality of a thing, person, etc. For example, best, worst, greatest,
etc. However, we always place the de?nite article ‘the’ before any
superlative adjective. Similarly, in the given sentence, ‘most’ will
be the superlative degree adjective. Hence, ‘the most splendid
church in Italy’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.474.(a) No error.
The given sentence is grammatically correct.
Sol.475.(d) His successful as a lawyer
We will replace the adjective(successful) with the noun(success)
to grammatically correct the given sentence. Hence, ‘His
success as a lawyer’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.476.(b) internationals events at highly standard
The given sentence needs an adjective(high) to tell a quality
about the subject and not an adverb(highly). Moreover,
‘internationals’ must be replaced with ‘international’. Hence,
‘international events of high standards’ is the most appropriate
answer.
Sol.477.(b) Soon or later
We must use the same degree of adjective before and after the
conjunction ‘or’. Similarly, a comparative degree adjective(later)
is used after the conjunction ‘or’ in the given sentence, so the
adjective to be used before it must be in the comparative
degree(sooner). Hence, ‘sooner or later’ is the most appropriate
answer.

binoculars, a pair of scissors, a pair of spectacles, etc. Similarly,
the given sentence talks about wearing spectacles. Hence, ‘a

Sol.467.(c) We use the article ‘a’ before
the words starting with a Consonant (B,D,F,N,etc.) for example, a
dirty shirt, a neglected department, etc. However, the article ‘an’
is used before words starting with a Vowel (A,E,I,O,U) or a Vowel

‘Superlative degree adjective’ denotes the form of an adjective or
adverb that expresses the highest or a very high degree of
quality of a thing, person, etc. For example, best, worst, greatest,

Sol.476.(b) internationals events at highly standard
The given sentence needs an adjective(high) to tell a quality
about the subject and not an adverb(highly). Moreover,
‘internationals’ must be replaced with ‘international’. Hence,
‘international events of high standards’ is the most appropriate
answer.
Sol.477.(b) Soon or later
We must use the same degree of adjective before and after the

The given sentence needs an adverb to modify the verb(sings)
and not an adjective(sweet). Hence, ‘Rahul sings very sweetly’ is
the most appropriate answer.
Sol.479.(b) slept themselves peacefully
The use of the re?exive pronoun ‘themselves’ is incorrect
according to the grammatical context of the given sentence so it
must be removed. Hence, ‘slept peacefully’ is the most
appropriate answer.
Sol.480.(c) ?owed besides

3
)’ is the most
appropriate answer.
Sol.482.(c) the football
The de?nite article 'the' is not used before some words(nouns)
like Jail, prison, school, football, cricket, etc. because these
nouns are non-speci?c in the general sense. Hence, ‘player of
football’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.483.(c) he travels by foot
There is a prepositional error in the given sentence. The
preposition ‘by’ must be replaced with ‘on’ because whenever we
go somewhere using our foot we use the preposition ‘on’ before
‘foot’. Hence, ‘he travels on foot’ is the most appropriate answer.

Sol.457.(a) to people who are closed-minded
There is a prepositional error in the given sentence. The

Hence, ‘interact with people who are closed-minded’ is the most
appropriate answer.
Sol.458.(d) No error.
The given sentence is grammatically correct.

appropriate answer.
Sol.460.(c) a spectacle
Some things are always written in pairs such as a pair of
binoculars, a pair of scissors, a pair of spectacles, etc. Similarly,
the given sentence talks about wearing spectacles. Hence, ‘a
pair of spectacles’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.461.(c) a lion

something belonging to someone. Similarly, the given sentence
talks about a skull which belongs to a lion. Hence, ‘a lion’s’ is the

limited studies’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.467.(c) We use the article ‘a’ before
the words starting with a Consonant (B,D,F,N,etc.) for example, a
dirty shirt, a neglected department, etc. However, the article ‘an’
is used before words starting with a Vowel (A,E,I,O,U) or a Vowel
Sound for example, an educated person, an honest policy, etc.
Hence, ‘in a major(starting with a consonant) economic slump’
is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.468.(a) No error.
The given sentence is grammatically correct.
Sol.469.(d) No error.
The given sentence is grammatically correct.
Sol.470.(d) standing at front of us

preposition ‘at’ must be replaced with ‘in’. Hence, ‘standing in
front of us’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.471.(a) that giving off
The given sentence is in the simple present tense so the verb
must be used in the simple present form(V
1
). Hence, ‘gives(V
1
)’
is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.472.(b) was reluctant to have their pictures take
“Have + V
3
(third form of the verb)” is the correct grammatical
structure for the given sentence. Hence, ‘was reluctant to have
their pictures taken(V
3
)’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.473.(d) more splendid church in Italy
‘Superlative degree adjective’ denotes the form of an adjective or
adverb that expresses the highest or a very high degree of
quality of a thing, person, etc. For example, best, worst, greatest,
etc. However, we always place the de?nite article ‘the’ before any
superlative adjective. Similarly, in the given sentence, ‘most’ will
be the superlative degree adjective. Hence, ‘the most splendid
church in Italy’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.474.(a) No error.
The given sentence is grammatically correct.
Sol.475.(d) His successful as a lawyer
We will replace the adjective(successful) with the noun(success)
to grammatically correct the given sentence. Hence, ‘His
success as a lawyer’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.476.(b) internationals events at highly standard
The given sentence needs an adjective(high) to tell a quality
about the subject and not an adverb(highly). Moreover,
‘internationals’ must be replaced with ‘international’. Hence,
‘international events of high standards’ is the most appropriate
answer.
Sol.477.(b) Soon or later
We must use the same degree of adjective before and after the
conjunction ‘or’. Similarly, a comparative degree adjective(later)
is used after the conjunction ‘or’ in the given sentence, so the
adjective to be used before it must be in the comparative
degree(sooner). Hence, ‘sooner or later’ is the most appropriate
answer.

Pinnacle Spot the Error
Sol.457.(a) to people who are closed-minded
There is a prepositional error in the given sentence. The
preposition ‘to’ must be replaced with ‘with’ because we
generally use the preposition ‘with’ with the verb ‘interact’.
Hence, ‘interact with people who are closed-minded’ is the most
appropriate answer.
Sol.458.(d) No error.
The given sentence is grammatically correct.
Sol.459.(d) my research rely at phone calls
We generally use the preposition ‘on’ after the verb ‘rely’ and not
‘at’. Hence, ‘my research rely on phone calls’ is the most
appropriate answer.
Sol.460.(c) a spectacle
Some things are always written in pairs such as a pair of
binoculars, a pair of scissors, a pair of spectacles, etc. Similarly,
the given sentence talks about wearing spectacles. Hence, ‘a
pair of spectacles’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.461.(c) a lion
We generally use apostrophe(‘s) to show possession means
something belonging to someone. Similarly, the given sentence
talks about a skull which belongs to a lion. Hence, ‘a lion’s’ is the
most appropriate answer.
Sol.462.(c) when they come of contact
There is a prepositional error in the given sentence. The
preposition ‘of’ must be replaced with ‘in’. Hence, ‘when they
come in contact’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.463.(c) including much strong
The comparative degree adjective when we do a comparison
between two things, people, etc. Similarly in the given sentence,
‘stronger’ will be the comparative degree of ‘strong’. Hence,
‘including stronger’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.464.(a) No error.
The given sentence is grammatically correct.
Sol.465.(a) No error.
The given sentence is grammatically correct.
Sol.466.(c) based at limit studies
There is a prepositional error in the given sentence. The
preposition ‘at’ must be replaced with ‘on’. Hence, ‘based on
limited studies’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.467.(c) We use the article ‘a’ before
the words starting with a Consonant (B,D,F,N,etc.) for example, a
dirty shirt, a neglected department, etc. However, the article ‘an’
is used before words starting with a Vowel (A,E,I,O,U) or a Vowel
Sound for example, an educated person, an honest policy, etc.
Hence, ‘in a major(starting with a consonant) economic slump’
is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.468.(a) No error.
The given sentence is grammatically correct.
Sol.469.(d) No error.
The given sentence is grammatically correct.
Sol.470.(d) standing at front of us
There is a prepositional error in the given sentence. The
preposition ‘at’ must be replaced with ‘in’. Hence, ‘standing in
front of us’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.471.(a) that giving off
The given sentence is in the simple present tense so the verb
must be used in the simple present form(V
1
). Hence, ‘gives(V
1
)’
is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.472.(b) was reluctant to have their pictures take
“Have + V
3
(third form of the verb)” is the correct grammatical
structure for the given sentence. Hence, ‘was reluctant to have
their pictures taken(V
3
)’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.473.(d) more splendid church in Italy
‘Superlative degree adjective’ denotes the form of an adjective or
adverb that expresses the highest or a very high degree of
quality of a thing, person, etc. For example, best, worst, greatest,
etc. However, we always place the de?nite article ‘the’ before any
superlative adjective. Similarly, in the given sentence, ‘most’ will
be the superlative degree adjective. Hence, ‘the most splendid
church in Italy’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.474.(a) No error.
The given sentence is grammatically correct.
Sol.475.(d) His successful as a lawyer
We will replace the adjective(successful) with the noun(success)
to grammatically correct the given sentence. Hence, ‘His
success as a lawyer’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.476.(b) internationals events at highly standard
The given sentence needs an adjective(high) to tell a quality
about the subject and not an adverb(highly). Moreover,
‘internationals’ must be replaced with ‘international’. Hence,
‘international events of high standards’ is the most appropriate
answer.
Sol.477.(b) Soon or later
We must use the same degree of adjective before and after the
conjunction ‘or’. Similarly, a comparative degree adjective(later)
is used after the conjunction ‘or’ in the given sentence, so the
adjective to be used before it must be in the comparative
degree(sooner). Hence, ‘sooner or later’ is the most appropriate
answer.

Solutions :-
Sol.478.(a) very sweet
The given sentence needs an adverb to modify the verb(sings)
and not an adjective(sweet). Hence, ‘Rahul sings very sweetly’ is
the most appropriate answer.
Sol.479.(b) slept themselves peacefully
The use of the re?exive pronoun ‘themselves’ is incorrect
according to the grammatical context of the given sentence so it
must be removed. Hence, ‘slept peacefully’ is the most
appropriate answer.
Sol.480.(c) ?owed besides
‘Besides’ means in addition to something & ‘Beside’ means next
to something. Similarly, the given sentence states that the river
?owed next to the hillock in our village. Hence, ‘?owed beside’ is
the most appropriate answer.
Sol.481.(d) He has been
“ By the time + V
2
( second form of the verb) , Had + V
3
( third form
of the verb) ” is grammatically the correct structure for the given
sentence. Hence, ‘He had been excused(V
3
)’ is the most
appropriate answer.
Sol.482.(c) the football
The de?nite article 'the' is not used before some words(nouns)
like Jail, prison, school, football, cricket, etc. because these
nouns are non-speci?c in the general sense. Hence, ‘player of
football’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.483.(c) he travels by foot
There is a prepositional error in the given sentence. The
preposition ‘by’ must be replaced with ‘on’ because whenever we
go somewhere using our foot we use the preposition ‘on’ before
‘foot’. Hence, ‘he travels on foot’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.484.(a) Is Savita joining us for lunch today? (Correct)
(b) Savita is joined us for lunch today? (Incorrect Sentence
Structure)
(c) Savita joining us for lunch today? (Incorrect Sentence
Structure)

Sol.486.(b) He saw us coming, and unaware that we had

(a) He saw us coming, and unaware that we learned of his
treachery, greeted us with a Smile. (Incorrect Tense)
(c) He saw us coming, and unaware that we were learning of his
treachery, greeted us with a smile. (Incorrect Tense)
(d) He saw us come , and unaware that we had learned of his
treachery, greets us with a Smile. (Incorrect Verb)
Sol.487.(a) to an environment
The ‘environment’ mentioned in the given sentence is speci?c
and we generally use the de?nite article ‘the’ before any speci?c
or particular noun. Hence, ‘to the environment’ is the
most appropriate answer.
Sol.488.(d) little did him know that the results will come out
worse than expected
We will replace the pronoun ‘him’ with the correct pronoun ‘he’
after the verb ‘did’ in the given sentence. Hence, ‘little did he
know that the results will come out worse than expected’ is the
most appropriate answer.
Sol.489.(b) that the bridge would constructed
“Would be + V
3
(third form of the verb)” is the correct
grammatical structure for the given sentence. Hence, ‘the bridge
would be constructed(V
3
)’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.490.(d) As a rule, single sentences should not be written or
printed as paragraphs. (Correct)
(a) As a rule, single sentences should not be wrote or printed as
paragraphs. (Incorrect Verb)
(b) As a rule, single sentences should not write or print as

as paragraphs. (Incorrect Verb)
Sol.491.(d) Me and my friends
We always put the second person before the ?rst person in a
positive sentence according to the order of pronouns. Similarly,
in the given sentence, narrator(I) is the ?rst person & his ‘friends’
www.ssccglpinnacle.com Download Pinnacle Exam Preparation App 47
Pinnacle Spot the Error
is the second person. Hence, ‘My friends & I’ is the most
appropriate answer.
Sol.492.(d) He wished he had more resources to support the
poor.
The given sentence is in the simple past tense so the verb must
be used in the past form(V
2
). However, the past form of ‘has’ is
‘had’. Hence, ‘he wished he had’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.493.(d) as soon as them noticed
“As soon as them noticed” will be replaced by “as soon as they
noticed”. Use of objective pronoun is incorrect here and a
nominative pronoun will be used.
Sol.494.(a) is believing
The sentence is in the present inde?nite tense. The word ‘says’
has been used at the end. So ‘believes’ will be used. The correct
sentence will be- The mob believes every word the leader says.
Hence, ‘believes’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.495.(c) Investing on real estate
The preposition “on” will be replaced by “in”. Invest in is a phrasal
verb which means to put money, effort, time, etc. into something
to make a pro?t or get an advantage. Hence, ‘investing in real
estate’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.496.(d) When the villagers put up a ?rm resistance to the
fearsome bandit with all their might, he ultimately ?ed the
spot.(Correct)
(a) When the villagers put up a ?rm resistance to the fearsome
bandit with all their might, he ultimately ?ew the

(c) When the villagers put up a ?rm resistance to the fearsome
bandit with all their might, he ultimately ?own the
spot.(Incorrect verb used)
Sol.497.(d) The General have ordered
The general is singular so singular verb has will be used. Have is
incorrect. The correct sentence will be- The General has ordered
that the troops should move immediately.
Sol.498.(d) As she kept walking towards me, my heart skipped
a beat. (Correct)
(a) As she kept walking within me, my heart skipped a beat.
(Incorrect preposition)
(b) As she kept walking from me, my heart skipped a

Solutions :-
Sol.501.(a) the very well-directed ?lm
The ‘?lm’ mentioned in the given sentence is not speci?c and we
generally use the inde?nite article ‘a’ before a non-speci?c noun.
Hence, ‘a very well directed’ is the most appropriate answer.
Sol.502.(a) this year it re?ect badly
The given sentence is a conditional sentence which has a
futuristic sense so the verb used must be in the future
tense(will). Hence, ‘it will re?ect badly’ is the most appropriate
answer.
Sol.503.(b) during he was
‘When’ is used for talking about the time at which something
happens or happened. The given sentence talks about the time
at which Jim was on holiday. Hence, ‘when he was’ is the most
appropriate answer.
Sol.504.(d) recall to meet
The given sentence will have a bare in?nitive (without the
preposition ‘to’). Hence, ‘recall meeting’ is the most appropriate
answer.
Sol.505.(d) having the trouble
‘Taking the trouble’ is grammatically the correct phrase for the
given sentence. Hence, ‘having’ will be replaced with ‘taking’ &
‘taking the trouble’ becomes the most appropriate answer.
Sol.506.(b) too grave sin
We will put the inde?nite article ‘a’ before ‘sin’ as the sin is
not-speci?c. Hence, ‘too grave a sin’ is the most appropriate
answer.
Sol.507.(c) No error.
Sol.508.(b) No error.
