Question

'The boy sings very melodiously, but sometimes he get nervous while performing.' spot the error:

• A. The boy
• B. sings melodiously
• C. but sometimes
• D. he get nervous while performing

Answer 1

Answer:

D. he get nervous while performing

The error in the sentence "The boy sings very melodiously, but sometimes he get nervous while performing." is in the phrase "he get nervous while performing."

The correct form should be: "he gets nervous while performing."

Explanation:

• The subject "he" requires the verb "gets" (with an -s at the end) in the present tense for subject-verb agreement.

So, the corrected sentence is:

"The boy sings very melodiously, but sometimes he gets nervous while performing."
