D. D

Answer 1

Hint: We need to identify an error (if any) in the given sentence which means we will analyze every part of the sentence to look for an error (any grammatical mistake).

Complete answer:

Option A) A – It is not the right option because it has no error in it. It is grammatically correct and is complete in meaning. Hence, option A is correct.

Option B) B - The error lies in part (b): 'congratulate you for your success’. The phrases 'congratulate for' and 'congratulate on' have slightly different meanings, and hence, they will be written in different forms in the sentence. Here, we should either write 'congratulate you on your success' or 'congratulate you for succeeding'. Hence, option B is the correct option with the error.

Option C) C - It is not the right option because it has no error in it. It is grammatically correct and is complete in meaning. Hence, option A is correct.

Option D) D- It is not the right option because it has no error in it. It is grammatically correct and is complete in meaning. Hence, option A is correct.

Hence the correct answer is option ‘B’.

Note: You must have understood the meaning of all the options correctly and must have chosen the correct option. When no human is specified and is more than one then singular nouns cannot be used.
