Suggested: Upcoming government exams
Correct Answer: the egg
Solution : The correct choice is the first option .
The error in the original segment lies in the article used before " egg". The correct article is " an " instead of " the". This is because when referring to a singular, countable object like an egg in a general sense, we use the indefinite article "an" instead of "the".
Therefore, the corrected sentence is: "I ate an egg yesterday for my dinner."
