    Study Notes

    Sentence Correction

    • To make a sentence grammatically and contextually correct, words may need to be rearranged or replaced.
    • The correct combination of words should be chosen to make the sentence meaningful.

    Errors in Sentences

    • Errors can occur in sentences due to incorrect placement of words.
    • Examples of errors include "streets" and "rolled" being incorrectly placed, and "class" and "perk" being incorrectly placed.
    • Correcting these errors requires replacing the incorrect words with the correct ones.

    Correct Sentence Structure

    • A sentence can be grammatically correct but still require rearrangement of words to make it contextually correct.
    • Example: "A large spool of wire will be needed to run the cable line from one end of the house to the other."

    Prepositions

    • The correct preposition should be used to indicate association or connection.
    • Example: "associated with the eyes" instead of "associated for the eyes".

    Verb Tenses

    • The correct verb tense should be used to indicate ongoing or continuous action.
    • Example: "the market crashing" instead of "the market crashes".

    Options and Answers

    • In sentence correction questions, one of the options gives the correct sequence of rearranged parts to make the sentence meaningful.
    • If the sentence is already arranged in the correct sequence or the correct sequence doesn't match with any of the given sequence, the answer is "No rearrangement required".
