Q.1. Journalists wearing face masks (a)/ are seeing outside an isolation (b)/ ward in Siliguri, West Bengal. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. b
Sol. Use ‘are seen’ – in place of – ‘are seeing’. With the word ‘see’, ‘ing’ form is not used in the formal English context. So, we have to frame this sentence in the present simple tense and in the passive structure.

Ans. a
Sol. Use ‘has taken down’ – in place of – ‘has had taken down’. The sentence has to be in active voice, as, Facebook has taken down several accounts for spreading disinformation. The structure ‘has had taken down’ is not the right usage.
Q.6. The board will look into issues (a)/ raised by users and those (b)/ that comes from Facebook. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. c

Q.7. Elsewhere also, there were several videos (a)/ of parents carrying their unconscious children in their (b)/ arms on streets and run to get medical help. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. c
Sol. Use ‘running’ – in place of – ‘run’. The verbs should be in the same forms before and after the conjunction ‘and’. So, we have to use the verb ‘running’ after the ‘and’, as, we have used ‘carrying’ before the conjunction ‘and.

Ans. c
Sol. Use ‘neutralized’ – in place of – ‘neutralize’. The sentence is framed in the past tense, and furthermore, before and after the conjunction ‘and’, verbs should be in the same forms. So, we have to use ‘neutralized’ after the conjunction ‘and’ as we have used ‘sealed’ before the conjunction ‘and’.
Q.11. The company had been told (a)/ to adhere all safety protocols before (b)/ reopening the plant after the lockdown relaxations. (c)/ No error (d)
