SAT: Error Identification Question #2 |
|
Question:
While some simply cannot properly (a) digest lactose, others develop a intolerance (b) over time (c), despite the fact that as young people, they (d) had no such problems. No error (e)
Choices:
The correct answer is (B). This sentence
has a small but critical error in article usage. When placing an article in
front of a word that starts with a vowel, it is always the case that the
article 'an' is used. This question has a word that not only starts with a
vowel, but that can survive with or without an article. So the sentence shown
should read either 'an intolerance' or simply 'intolerance.'
