In the following question, some part of the sentence may have errors. Find out which part of the sentence has an error and select the appropriate option. If a sentence is free from error, select ‘No error’. Her mother is (1)/ angry and (2)/ indifferent to me. (3)/ No Error (4)  ?

Option 2 : 2

The correct answer is 2

• 'angry with' should be used in place of 'angry'
• If two verbs/ adjectives etc take two different prepositions, we must mention both the prepositions, we cannot simply use one preposition with the last verb/ adjective.
• Examples:
  • She is conscious of and engaged in her work.
  • I was surprised at as well as pleased with her performance.
  • She is younger and taller than her brother. (Single 'same' preposition is used with both the adjectives, it is used only one)
• ​Thus, the correct sentence is: Her mother is angry with and indifferent to me.
