Question

The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains an error.
The principal gave up / the prizes to / the winners on / Republic Day.

A.

The principal gave up

B.

the winners on

C.

the prizes to

D.

Republic Day

Correct option is A

Option (a) contains an error.
· Explanation: The phrase gave up is incorrect because it means to quit or surrender (छोड़ देना), which does not fit the context of distributing prizes.
· Instead, the correct phrase is gave away, which means to distribute something (वितरित करना).
· Grammatical Rule: Phrasal verbs must be used correctly according to the context. "Gave up" is not interchangeable with "gave away."
·
· Correct Sentence: The principal gave away the prizes to the winners on Republic Day.
