Find out which part of the sentence has an error and select the appropriate option. If a sentence is free from errors select ‘No error’ as your answer. What Dr. Joshi mainly aimed at, (A) / was to promote the (B) / self-development of the young minds (C) / committed for their charge. (D) / No error (E) Correct Answer D
The correct answer is option 4, as the error lies in part D of the sentence.
Key Points
Reading the sentence we find that:
- The preposition 'for' used in part D is incorrect.
- The word 'committed' (adjective) means dedicated and one is always committed to their work, as in this case, to their charge.
- 'Committed to their charge' can be defined as the level of enthusiasm or dedication a person has towards his/her tasks assigned at a workplace.
- So, instead of 'for' we must use the preposition 'to' to make the sentence grammatically correct.
The correct sentence will be: What Dr. Joshi mainly aimed at, was to promote the self-development of the young minds committed to their charge.
Additional Information
- An adjective is a word that describes a noun or a pronoun: "That man is so tall."
