Answer Key With Explanations:
1. (b) The second part of the sentence should read ‘sometime next week’. ‘Sometimes’ means ‘now and then’; ‘sometime’ means ‘someday’.
2. (d) No error
3. (b) ‘Unless’ itself means ‘but not if ‘. So a negative like ‘does not’ cannot be hinged to it. (b) should read ‘unless he gives’.
4. (c) As we are referring to ‘one of the problems’ (singular), the singular verb (‘is’) is to be used.
5. (c) With ‘since’, it would be correct to use ‘last’ year. With ‘one year’, ‘for’ is better.
6. (c) Put ‘than’ in place of ‘as’. When we are comparing two things for their importance, etc.., ‘than’ is used.
7. (d) No error. ‘Illnesses’ may also suit the context, especially if we are talking of specific illnesses considered together. But the sentence is correct as it is.
8. (a) ‘Nobody’ requires use of ‘has’ (sing.) and not ‘have’ (pl.)
9. (b) ‘In finding’ must replace ‘to find’.
10. (b) When ‘as well as’ is used, a singular verb should be used: ‘is’ not ‘are’.
