Question

There are two errors in this sentence. Identify them.
More of the fun and excitement (A)/ in your life comes from (B)/ use of your senses (C)/ which open up a world of sights and sounds.(D)

A.

(B) and (C)

B.

(A) and (C)

C.

(A) and (D)

D.

(C) and (D)

Correct option is B


Option (b) — (A) and (C) — contains an error.
Error in part (A):
The phrase "More of the fun and excitement" is incorrect because “fun and excitement” are uncountable nouns, and we do not use “more of” to begin a sentence structure in this way. The correct quantifier for uncountable nouns in such a context is “Much of”, not “More of.”
Error in part (C):
The phrase "use of your senses" lacks the definite article “the.” Since “use” is a singular countable noun and refers to a specific use (of the senses), the correct form is "the use of your senses."
Grammatical rule used:
1. Quantifiers with uncountable nouns – Use “much” with uncountable nouns like “fun” and “excitement.”
2. Articles with singular countable nouns – When using a singular, specific noun (like “use”), we must include the definite article “the.”
Explanation of the grammatical rule in Hindi:
1. जब कोई noun गिनती में न आने वाला हो (जैसे fun, excitement), तो उसके साथ "much" का प्रयोग किया जाता है, "more of" नहीं।
2. जब कोई singular countable noun (जैसे "use") किसी विशेष चीज़ की ओर इशारा कर रहा हो, तो उसके पहले "the" लगाना आवश्यक होता है।
Example:
Incorrect: More of the fun and excitement in your life comes from use of your senses.
Correct: Much of the fun and excitement in your life comes from the use of your senses.
