Question

In the following sentences, identify which ones are grammatically and contextually incorrect:

(I) The students who have completed the assignments on time will receive extra credit from their instructor.

(II) Despite of the heavy traffic, we managed to reach the airport on time for our flight.

(III) She has been working on the project since six months, but there is still a lot left to do.

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. Sentence (I) is correct both grammatically and contextually. It properly uses the relative clause and verb tense.

2. Sentence (II) is incorrect because the phrase "Despite of" is wrong. The correct phrase is "Despite the heavy traffic," since "despite" does not require "of".

3. Sentence (III) is also incorrect. The phrase "since six months" is wrong here because "since" is used to indicate a specific point in time, not a duration. The correct phrase is "for six months" to express the duration she has been working on the project.

**Answer:** (b) Both (II) and (III)
