    Question

    The sentence is divided into four segments: (A), (B), (C), and (D). Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error. If the sentence is both grammatically and contextually correct, select “No error” as the correct answer.

    After completing (A)/ the application, (B)/ you must submitting it (C)/ and pay the fees at the counter. (D)

    D.

    E.

    No error

    Correct option is C

    Sentence given:
    After completing (A)/ the application, (B)/ you must submitting it (C)/ and pay the fees at the counter. (D)
    Step 1: Spot the error
    Look at (C): “you must submitting it.”
    · Rule: After a modal verb (must, can, should, will, may, etc.), the main verb always takes its base form (without -ing, -ed, or “to”).
    · So instead of “must submitting,” it should be “must submit.”
    Step 2: Grammar rule
    Modal Verb + Base Verb Rule
    · Structure: Subject + modal verb + base verb + object
    · Example: You must complete the form. (not must completing or must completed)
    Step 3: Sentence structure
    · Subordinate clause: After completing the application
    · Main clause: you must submit it and pay the fees at the counter.
    Step 4: Corrected sentence
    After completing the application, you must submit it and pay the fees at the counter.
    Step 5: Example for clarity
    Incorrect: She can singing very well.
    Correct: She can sing very well.
    Correct Answer: (c) C
