    Question

    The following sentence has been divided into four segments. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error.
    She was singing / beautifully in / the concert hall / last night.

    A.

    She was singing

    B.

    the concert hall

    C.

    beautifully in

    D.

    last night

    Correct option is C


    Correct Sentence: She was singing beautifully at the concert hall last night.
    Explanation:
    The error lies in the incorrect use of the preposition "in". For performances or events at specific venues like halls, theatres, etc., the correct preposition is “at.”
    Grammar Rule – Prepositions of Place:
    · Use "at" to refer to a point or specific location.
    · Example: She performed at the Royal Opera House.
    Analysis of Options:
    · (a) She was singing – grammatically correct (past continuous tense).
    · (b) the concert hall – noun phrase, correct.
    · (c) beautifully in – error; should be beautifully at.
    · (d) last night – correct adverb of time.
