In the following question, some parts of the sentence may contain an error. Find out which part of the sentence does not have an error and click the option corresponding to it. If you think all the parts contain an error, mark option 5, i.e. ‘None of these’ as your answer choice. Shooter Apurvi Chandela and Ravi Kumar (A)/ opened Indias medal tally at the (B)/ 2018 Asian Games by winning bronze on the (C)/ final of the 10m Air Rifle mixed team event. (D)?

Option 4 : D

The correct answer is option 4, i.e. D.

The erroneous combination is ABC and the part which does not contain any error is D.

In A, ‘Shooter’ is incorrect and must be replaced with ‘Shooters’. Since, both Apurvi Chandela and Ravi Kumar are shooters thus, ‘s’ must be used to make the word ‘shooter’ (singular) to ‘shooters’ (plural).

In B, ‘Indias’ is incorrect and must be replaced with ‘India’s’.

Reference has been made to a single ‘India’ and not multiple ‘India’. Thus, the appropriate correction must be done. Apostrophe ‘s’ is used to highlight the reference that both the shooters opened ‘India’s’ tally count.

In C part, ‘winning bronze on the’ is grammatically incorrect and must be replaced with ‘winning bronze in the’ thereby, correcting the context as ‘winning bronze in the final’.

'On' is used to highlight the fact that they won the medal on the day of the final whereas, in the given context we are referring to the fact that they won the medal in the final of the mixed team event (a single event that happened on the day of the event).

As only D part is the one that does not contain any error, thus, the correct answer choice is option 4.

The sentence can be correctly rewritten as-

Shooters Apurvi Chandela and Ravi Kumar opened India's medal tally at the 2018 Asian Games by winning bronze in the final of the 10m Air Rifle mixed team event.
