Question 7:
Direction:- Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow.
Migaloo is by far one of the world's most recognisable whales, because he is completely white. Thanks to genetic sampling of Migaloo's skin, scientists have identified that he's male,and his albino appearance is a result of a variation in the gene responsible for the colour of his skin.
Simply by looking different, Migaloo has become an icon within Australia's east coast humpback whale population. Indeed, Migaloo has his own Twitter account with over 10,000 followers, and website where fans can lodge sightings and learn more about humpback whales. He was first discovered in 1991 off Byron Bay, Australia, and has since played hide and seek for many years, with many not knowing where or when he'll show up next. He's even surprised Kiwi fans by showing up in New Zealand waters.
With the last official sighting two years ago, the time has once again come for us to ask: where is Migaloo?
Already this year there have been false sightings, such as a near all white whale spotted off New South Wales. To make things more confusing, regular-looking humpbacks can trick whale watchers when they flip upside down, due to their white bellies.
Where was Migaloo first discovered?
New Zealand
Jamaica
South Wales
Australia

Direction:- The following sentence has been divided into parts that contains an error. Select the part that contains the error from the given options.

in the dictation
he has made
This is
only mistake
The article 'the' is used to refer to specific or particularnouns & articles 'a/an' are used to modify non-specific or non-particular nouns. For example, if someone says, "Let's buy the book," it means a specific book but if someone says, "Let's buy a book," it means any book rather than a specific book. Similarly, the given sentence talks about a specific mistake.
Hence, 'the only mistake' is the most appropriate structure.
