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.
