Question : A sentence has been broken into four parts with an error in one of the parts. Identify the part that has an error:
A. Much fight was
B. because of the car
C. that my father had bought
D. as my birthday gift
Option 1: No error
Option 2: because of the car
Option 3: that my father had bought
Option 4: as my birthday gift
Option 5: Much fight was
Correct Answer: because of the car
Solution : We use because of when the first clause can stand as a complete sentence. ‘Much fight' does not have a meaning of its own. We need ‘due to’.
