Question 131

The committee came to a decision to discuss in detail about assorted problems that people have been facing for a long time.

Video Solution

Solution

Discuss means 'to talk about sth'

Discuss about is a redundant word, hence incorrect.

Question 132

I know you must not see eye to eye with the philosophy of Ramkrishna but you must admit that he had had tremendous influence over a great many followers.

Video Solution

Solution

The context requires a single ‘had’ to refer to the past; the double ‘had’ makes it a past perfect which is incorrect here.

Question 133

The Principal inquired with the students if they would like their teacher to repeat the lesson again.

Video Solution

Solution

‘Again’ is redundant since the sentence already has ‘repeat’ which means to say or do again.
