Model Answer
| Line | Error | Correction |
|------|-------|------------|
| (a) | who in turn | Error: in → Correction: <u>who</u> (already given) — Error: ~~in~~ → Correction: <u>who</u> |
Let me answer clearly:
(a) Error: `in` | Correction: <u>who</u>
(The phrase should read "who, in turn" — but if the error is the relative pronoun form, it depends on context. Standard answer:)
Error: `in` | Correction: <u>on</u>
(b) Error: `impetous` | Correction: <u>impetus</u>
(c) Error: `from` | Correction: <u>for</u>
---
Explanation
- (a) "in turn" — the preposition or word before "turn" may be incorrect depending on the sentence; most likely a spelling/word error in the original line.
- (b) "impetous" is a common misspelling of impetus (meaning a driving force/motivation). Examiners look for the corrected spelling underlined.
- (c) "from the progress" is incorrect; the correct preposition in context is for — e.g., "responsible for the progress."
- Always underline the correction in board exams; do not underline the error.
- One error per line only — do not identify multiple errors.
