Answers
Explanation:
Option B: The error lies in part (b): 'are allowed', which is in plural form. The correct form of the verb is 'is allowed', i.e., singular verb form.
'Each' in 'each speaker' is a singular determiner, which refers to every single speaker in particular. So, the verb too will be in singular form 'is allowed'. When the subject is singular, the verb must also be singular. The same goes for plural subjects and their plural verbs.
Hence, the corrected sentence is: A time slot of fifteen minutes is allowed to each speaker.
So, the option with the error is option B.
Options A and C do not have errors. Option D is incorrect as the sentence has an error.
