Read each of the sentences provided below carefully. Identify and select the sentence that contains a grammatical or contextual error. If none of the sentences contain any error and all are grammatically and contextually correct, select the "All are correct" option.
Correct Answer :
All are correct
Solution :
The correct answer is All are correct.
Let us analyze each sentence to determine its correctness:
1. "Sufficient police personnel would be stationed across the region, which has 19 districts identified as being impacted by insurgent activity."
This sentence is grammatically and contextually correct. The collective noun "personnel" is used properly, and the non-restrictive relative clause starting with "which" correctly refers back to the region.
2. "Modern tablets run operating systems (OS) that closely resemble those found in the desktop and laptop computers we use daily."
This sentence contains no errors. The plural pronoun "those" correctly refers back to the plural noun phrase "operating systems".
3. "Within minutes, the open ground and surrounding ceremonial zones were covered in a thick haze rising from the rows of clay hearths."
This sentence is grammatically accurate. The compound subject ("the open ground and surrounding ceremonial zones") correctly matches the plural verb "were covered".
4. "Penalties are intended to instill fear in the individual who engages in criminal behavior with the hope that it will serve as a deterrent."
This sentence is correctly structured and free of grammatical or contextual errors.
Since all four sentences are free from any error, the correct choice is All are correct.
