The following sentence has been divided into parts. One of them may contain an error. Select the part that contains the error from the given options. If you don’t find any error, mark ‘No error’ as your answer.
I wanted to buy a candle holder, but the store didn't have one. So, I got a cake.

Correct option is A

Option (a) No error is the correct answer.
Explanation: The sentence is grammatically correct, punctuated well, and makes logical sense.
· The verb tenses are appropriate (past simple).
· The subject-verb agreement is maintained.
· The conjunction "but" is correctly used to contrast the first clause.
· The phrase “didn’t have one” clearly refers back to “a candle holder” as its antecedent.
· The continuation “So, I got a cake” is logically and grammatically valid as a humorous contrast.
Grammatical rule used:
✔ Proper use of coordinating conjunctions (“but” and “so”) to connect independent clauses.
✔ Correct usage of pronouns with clear antecedents (“one” referring to “candle holder”).
Example:
I wanted to buy a vase, but the shop didn’t have one. So, I bought flowers instead.
�� Booster Tip: In casual or narrative English, it's common to show contrast and result using conjunctions like but and so with brief, clear sentences.
