JKSSB SI Official Paper (Held On: 13 Dec 2022 Shift 1)

Answer 1

The correct answer is Option 4.

Key Points

The primary issue in the sentence is the incorrect use of tense in part C.
The sentence should maintain a consistent future tense to match the context.
The correct phrase should be "they get back from Bengaluru next month," ensuring grammatical correctness and clarity.
Thus, the error is located in part C of the sentence.

Therefore, the correct answer is C.

Correct Sentence: "They hope to move in to the new house as soon as they get back from Bengaluru next month."

B: "the new house as soon as" – This part of the sentence is grammatically correct and does not require any changes.
D: "No error" – This would be the correct option if there were no mistakes in the sentence, but there is an error in part C.
