Question : Directions: In the following question, some parts of the sentence have errors, and some are correct. Find out which part of the sentence has an error. The number of that part is the answer. If a sentence is error-free, your answer is "No Error".
Mohan wishes (1) / he will be (2) / richer. (3) / No Error (4)
Option 1: 1
Option 2: 2
Option 3: 3
Option 4: 4
Correct Answer: 2
Solution : The correct choice is the second option .
- Here, "will be" should be replaced with "were", as it is used to indicate an imaginary situation. 'He wishes he were' is correct to express a wish that something was different than it actually is.
- While "will be" is used to express certainty in future actions or events, it doesn't work well in this particular sentence because the verb "wishes" implies a desire or a hypothetical situation.
Therefore, the correct statement would be: "Mohan wishes he were richer."
