Instructions

Which of the phrases (A), (B), (C), and (D) given below should replace the phrase given in ‘’bold’’ in the following sentence to make the sentence grammatically meaningful and correct. If the sentence is correct as it is and no correction required, mark (E) as the answer.

Question 151

The newly-wed couple was shocked when it was observed that many people who ‘’had been invited’’, missing.

Solution

In the original sentence, who had been invited modifies people. Without the modifier, the sentence would read, 'The newly-wed couple was shocked when it was observed that many people missing'. This sentence is wrong because of missing 'were' between people and missing. The right sentence should read, The newly-wed couple was shocked when it was observed that many people who had been invited were missing. Right answer is B.
