Question : Directions: In the following question, some parts of the sentence have errors, and some are correct. Find out which part of the sentence has an error. The number of that part is the answer. If a sentence is error-free, your answer is "No Error".
I shall go (1) / by the (2) / 3 o'clock's train. (3) / No Error (4)
Option 1: (1)
Option 2: (2)
Option 3: (3)
Option 4: (4)
Correct Answer: (3)
Solution : The error lies in the third part of the sentence.
The reason for the error is the incorrect use of the possessive form. When expressing time, we don't use the possessive form. Instead, we simply say "3 o'clock" to indicate the time.
So, the correct sentence should be: "I shall go by the 3 o'clock train."
