Error Spotting

  1. Apackets of ready to cook food
  2. Bmost of the shoppers
  3. Cin the mall looking forCorrect
  4. DWe noticed that

Answer: C. in the mall looking for

Explanation

The correct answer is 'in the mall looking for' Key Points In the given sentence, the usage of 'in the mall looking for ' is incorrect Instead, use 'in the mall were looking for' According to grammar, 'Most of' is a quantifier which is used to 'to refer to the majority of a group of things or people or the largest part of something.' In the given sentence, 'that clause' is used which has its own subject which is 'shoppers' hence we need a verb for this subject because it is not mentioned in the sentence. So we need a plural verb which should be in the past tense because the main clause of the sentence is in the past tense. So use 'were looking' So the correct sentence is- We noticed that most of the shoppers in the mall were looking for packets of ready to cook food.
