Correct Answer: C
Solution : Option C is the correct answer.'
Explanation:
- - The word'smiling' is used wrongly in the given sentence.
- - We all know that an article is followed by a noun or an adjective, followed by a noun.
- - Because'smile' is a noun and 'nice' is an adjective, using'smiling' is incorrect because it is a present participle.
- - Replace'smiling' with'smile' to complete the phrase.
- As a result, the right statement is:: The girl standing at the last has a nice smile.
- - Additional Information - Let's go over one crucial noun rule:
- - The word 'some' is usually followed by a countable plural noun or an uncountable noun.
- - As an example, the government has authorised some referendums.
