Question : Identify the segment in the sentence which contains a grammatical error. If there is no error, then select the option 'No error'.
I am hearing a strange noise now
Option 1: a strange
Option 2: No error
Option 3: I am hearing
Option 4: noise now
Correct Answer: I am hearing
Solution : The error lies in the third option.
Explanation: "I am hearing" suggests an ongoing action, but "hear" describes a sense or perception that is not mentioned in the present continuous tense
. Hence, using the simple present tense "hear" in this context is more appropriate.
Therefore, the correct sentence would be: I hear a strange noise now.
