Don't Miss: Month-wise current affairs
Suggested: Upcoming government exams
Correct Answer: (1)
Solution : The error lies in the first part of the sentence.
In the original sentence, "most people" is used to refer to a majority of individuals. It is better to use the phrase most of the people. This is the correct usage and helps in referring to a specific group within the general population.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: Most of the people are afraid of swine flu these days.
