In each of the following sentences four words or phrases have been underlined. One underlined part in each sentence is not acceptable in standard English. Pick up that part and mark its number.
The new managing committee arranged(1) everything expect(2) that the weekly meetings(3) were discontinued.(4)
Solution
Expect refers to regarding something as likely to happen
Except means to exclude something
In this sentence, the intent is to convey that the managing committee arranged for everything but excluded/ omitted the weekly meetings.
So here, except is the valid choice, and expect does not fit, as there is no likelihood or expectation for the meetings.
