Question

A.

no error

B.

interest in taking on the challenging

C.

project that was assigned to the team.

D.

Neither of them have shown any

Correct option is D

The error lies in (d) Neither of them have shown any. The verb have should be replaced with has, as "neither" is singular.
Explanation: "Neither" is a singular pronoun and requires a singular verb. Grammatical rule: Singular pronouns like "neither" and "either" must take singular verbs. Rule explanation in Hindi: "Neither" जैसे singular pronouns के साथ singular verb का प्रयोग होता है। Example: Neither of the students has submitted the assignment.
Meanings of the other options:
· No error: Incorrect, as there is an error in part (d).
· Interest in taking on the challenging: This part is correct and grammatically sound.
· Project that was assigned to the team: Correct and does not require changes.
