Find the part of the sentence that contains an error
Rarely the department issues such open calls for proposals without internal approvals from the steering committee.
Answer और ExplanationAnswer and explanation
Answer: (A) Rarely the department issues
Concept (Inversion after a Negative Adverb) Rarely, seldom, hardly या never जैसे negative adverb से वाक्य आरंभ होने पर inversion होता है, अर्थात auxiliary verb subject से पहले आता है। यहाँ वाक्य सामान्य क्रम में लिखा गया है, जो गलत है, इसलिए त्रुटि भाग (1) में है।
✓ सही वाक्य: Rarely does the department issue such open calls for proposals without internal approvals from the steering committee.
Examiner का जाल यह है कि वाक्य सामान्य क्रम में सही पढ़ा जाता है, इसलिए छात्र 'Rarely' के कारण आवश्यक inversion नहीं पहचान पाते।
Concept (Inversion after a Negative Adverb) When a negative adverb such as rarely, seldom, hardly or never begins a sentence, inversion takes place, that is, the auxiliary verb comes before the subject.
✓ Correct sentence Rarely does the department issue such open calls for proposals without internal approvals from the steering committee.
Examiner's Trap The sentence reads correctly in normal order, so students do not notice that the opening 'Rarely' demands inversion.
