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".
The reason Janet came dressed (1) / as Lady Gaga was because she'd been told (2) / it was a costume party (3) / No Error (4)
Option 1: (1)
Option 2: (2)
Option 3: (3)
Option 4: (4)
Correct Answer: (2)
Solution : The error lies in the second part of the sentence.
In this sentence, "because" is not required as, reason and because cannot be used together. So, "because she'd been told" should be changed to "that she'd been told" to make the sentence grammatically correct.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "The reason Janet came dressed as Lady Gaga was that she'd been told it was a costume party."
