Question : Improve the underlined part of the sentence. Choose 'No improvement' as an answer if the sentence is grammatically correct.
A health person may carry germs of typhoid, cholera, dysentery, etc. in his body.
Option 1: health persons might
Option 2: healthy person may
Option 3: No improvement
Option 4: healthy persons would
Correct Answer: healthy person may
Solution : The correct choice is the second option.
Explanation : The error lies in using "health" instead of the correct term, "healthy". " Healthy " is the adjectival form that appropriately modifies the noun "person" to convey the intended meaning. Therefore, the correction is specifically about replacing "health" with "healthy" to achieve proper adjective-noun agreement.
So, the correct sentence would be: " A healthy person may carry germs of typhoid, cholera, dysentery, etc., in his body."
