1091
Identify the segment containing an error: 'The furniture in this room were expensive.'
The correlative conjunction pair is 'Scarcely... when', not 'Scarcely... than'. 'Than' is used with 'No sooner'. The correct sentence is 'Scarcely had I reached the station when the train left.'
1093
Identify the segment containing an error: 'He did not went to the party yesterday.'
After the auxiliary verb 'did', the main verb must be in its base form (first form). 'Went' is the past tense; the base form is 'go'. The correct sentence is 'He did not go'.
1094
Identify the segment containing an error: 'Ten miles are a long distance to walk.'
When a plural noun denotes a specific quantity, amount, or distance considered as a whole, it takes a singular verb. 'Ten miles' is treated as a single unit of distance, so 'is' should be used.
1095
Identify the segment containing an error: 'She is the most unique person I know.'
The adjective 'unique' is an absolute term meaning 'one of a kind'. It cannot be modified by 'more' or 'most'. The correct sentence should be 'She is a unique person'.
1096
Identify the segment containing an error: 'I look forward to meet you soon.'
The pronoun 'Each' is singular and requires a singular verb. Even though 'students' is plural, the subject is 'Each'. Therefore, 'are' should be replaced with 'is'.
1100
Identify the segment containing an error: 'Unless you do not work hard, you will fail.'
The word 'Unless' implies a negative condition (meaning 'if not'). Using 'do not' with 'unless' creates a double negative. The correct sentence is 'Unless you work hard...'.
