OA
1)2
In sentence C, aspect should read aspects as the writers
wrote about their squalid life experiences, and not just one
aspect of life. In sentence D, the word distant must be
replaced as it changes the meaning of the second half of the
sentence not keeping it in flow with the rest of the paragraph.
The sentence should read emergence of a distinct cultural
community.
2). 1
In the first sentence the preposition is must be replaced with
the preposition in. In sentence C, the adjective this is singular
and the noun is plural skills. In coordination with the rest of
the sentence, the correct phrase should be this skill. In the
last sentence, it is not possible to tilt your head up to look at
the horizon behind you, you have to tilt your head back to do
the same.
3). 5
In the first sentence, the parallel structure is incorrect; the
words about it spoil the structure of the sentence. In sentence
C the word alliance meaning coalition has been used
inappropriately, the word used should have been either in
addition or in addendum.
Set 71:
My take-
1-> a
2-> b ( Parallelism )
3-> d ( brash walk, sluggish stroll is wrong and instead of death tally ,it should be death toll)...
Bhai ek doubt tha,
harvesting of fish and shellfish, and exploitation of...
Isme parellelism error nahi hua kya?
harvesting of fish and shellfish, and exploiting of... jyada sahi nahi hoga?
the parallelism is 'the harvesting..', 'the cultivation..' and ' the exploitation..'
