ex : Hlectronic tim in g _______
(A) were used (B) was used (C) using (D) used
The best answer is (B). (A ) is incorrect because the subject is in gerund form and therefore requires a singular verb. (C ) is incorrect because the -mg form is not a
verb and a clause requires a verb. (D ) is incorrect because the verb is active and a passive verb is needed
In the Written Hxpression section, verb errors often involve the following : 1 A main verb may be used instead of a
participle or I'icc versa. The main verb,
for example cat or ate, mav be used
instead of eaten, or the main verb is eating instead of eating.
2. The gerund may be used instead of the infinitive. For example, eating instead
of to eat.
3. The wrong infinitive form may be used
For example, make may be used
instead of to make
