Q. Find the error part: The forecast was for fair (a) and warm weather (b) and the day dawned dark and chill (c) no error (d)
Sentence: The forecast was for fair (a) and warm weather (b) and the day dawned dark and chill (c) no error (d)
Error is in part (c).
Reason:
"Chill" is mainly a noun or verb. As an adjective describing the weather/day, we use "chilly".
"Dark" and "chilly" are both adjectives → the day dawned dark and chilly.
"Chill" would mean a cold feeling, not the quality of the day.
Corrected: The forecast was for fair and warm weather and the day dawned dark and chilly.
Answer: (C) C
