Question

II. Spot the error and rewrite the sentence.
(1) Thing which attracted and sustain our attention spontaneously are called
interest. (Spot the error/s in the sentence, correct it and rewrite the sentence).​

Answer 1

Things which attract and sustain our attention spontaneously are called interest.

Answer 2

The correct sentence is as follows:

Things that attract and sustain our attention spontaneously are called

interest.

1. Things should be plural since we are talking about multiple interests.

2. 'That' should be used instead of 'which' as 'that' is used to indicate a particular object, person, etc. 'Which' is used to add information about an object, person, etc.

3. The word 'attract' should be in the present tense.
