Question : Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error. If there is no error, select 'No Error'.
He spent a great deal of time / writing on his legal pad and aggressive, / underlining whatever he was writing.
Option 1: He spent a great deal of time
Option 2: No Error
Option 3: writing on his legal pad and aggressive
Option 4: underlining whatever he was writing
Correct Answer: writing on his legal pad and aggressive
Solution : The correct choice is the third option.
The error lies in the use of the word aggressive in this context. The adverbial form aggressively is the correct choice here, which modifies the verb underlining to convey the intended meaning.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: He spent a great deal of time writing on his legal pad and aggressively underlining whatever he was writing.
