Directions : In the following questions, a sentence is divided into four parts consisting of a highlighted word in each part. Choose the option reflecting the word which is either misspelt or grammatically incorrect. If all the highlighted words are correct, choose option (e) i.e. “all are correct” as your answer choice.

Signalled
Incorrect AnswerAll are correct
Incorrect AnswerExplanation:
The highlighted word in the first part is incorrectly spelled as “faling”. However, the precise spelling of the word in “falling” and it means move from a higher to a lower level, typically rapidly and without control. All the other words have been spelt correctly and are in appropriate grammatical syntax. Hence, option (b) is the most suitable answer choice.
