Question : Directions: In the following question, some parts of the sentence may have some errors. Find out which part of the sentence has an error and select the appropriate option. If the sentence is free from error, select "No error".
People who live on (1) / glass houses (2) / should not throw stones at others. (3) / No error (4)
Option 1: (1)
Option 2: (2)
Option 3: (3)
Option 4: (4)
Correct Answer: (1)
Solution : The error lies in the first part of the sentence.
The preposition on should be replaced with in to make the sentence grammatically accurate. "In" is used to convey that people are inside the house, whereas "on" conveys that something is resting on the surface and not inside.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "People who live in glass houses should not throw stones at others."
