    Question

    Improve the highlighted part of the sentence.
    My new shoes gave me a blistered on my right heel.

    A.

    me a blisters

    B.

    I a blister

    C.

    No improvement

    D.

    me a blister

    Correct option is D

    The correct substitution of the highlighted words is (d) me a blister.
    Explanation: The word “blistered” is incorrect here as it is an adjective. The sentence needs a noun in singular form ( a blister) to fit grammatically with "a".
    Grammatical rule used:
    · "a" is used with singular countable nouns.
    · "Blistered" is an adjective, not a noun.
    · Correct noun form is "blister" (a swelling on the skin filled with fluid).
    Example: The tight shoes gave me a blister.
    Information Booster:
    · "Blistered" can be used as a verb or adjective (e.g., His skin was blistered by the sun), but not as a noun.
