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).

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) (d) Are Savita joining us for lunch today? (Incorrect Verb) Sol.485.(c) In its August 1992 issue, the highly respected British Journal of Addiction described three unusual cases of carrot dependence. (Correct) (a) In its August 1992 issue, the highly respected British Journal of Addiction was describing three unusual cases of carrot dependence. (Incorrect Tense) (b) In its August 1992 issue, the highly respected British Journal of Addiction describing three unusual cases of carrot dependence. (Incorrect Verb) (d) In its August 1992 issue, the highly respeced British Journal of Addiction has been described three British Journal of Addiction has been described three. (Incorrect Tense) Sol.486.(b) He saw us coming, and unaware that we had learned of his treachery, greeted us with a smile. (Correct) (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 paragraphs. (Incorrect Verb) (c) As a rule, single sentences shall not have written or printed 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 spot.(Incorrect verb used) (b) When the villagers putted up a ?rm resistance to the fearsome bandit with all their might, he ultimately ?eed the spot.(Incorrect verb used) (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 beat.(Incorrect preposition) (c) As she kept into me, my heart skipped a beat.(Incorrect preposition) Sol.499.(d) There were more than thirty delegates who attended the training programme last summer.
