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".
Smoking is undoubtedly (1) / very injurious (2) / for health. (3) / No error (4)
Option 1: (1)
Option 2: (2)
Option 3: (3)
Option 4: (4)
Correct Answer: (3)
Solution : The error lies in the third part of the sentence.
An appropriate preposition should be used after the adjective "injurious". The correct preposition to use is "to," so the correct phrase is "very injurious to health." In English, the adjective "injurious" requires the preposition "to" to connect it with the noun it affects.
Therefore, the correct sentence is, "Smoking is undoubtedly very injurious to health."
