Question : Directions: In the following question, some parts of the sentence may have some errors. Find out which part of the sentence has an error and select the appropriate option. If the sentence is free from error, select "No error".

Option 1: (1)
Option 2: (2)
Option 3: (3)
Option 4: (4)
Correct Answer: (1)
Solution : The error lies in the first part of the sentence.
The apostrophe is not used to show possession in the case of non-living articles. Hence, the table's legs should be replaced with the legs of the table.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: " The legs of the table have been elaborately carved."
