The corrected sentences are as follows -

  1. The colors of the curtains are very bright.
  2. I saw a uniformed soldier hiding behind the wall.
  3. Nobody knows why he was killed.
  4. My older brother lives abroad.​
  • In the first sentences, the topic is the color of many curtains and many curtains can have many colors. Also, "are" has been used as the linking verb. So, "the colors" will be used instead of "the color".
  • In the second sentence, "an" has been used as an article. But, the word "uniformed" is pronounced with a "y" sound and "y" is a consonant. So, "a" is used before the word "uniformed".
  • In the third sentence, the linking verb "was" is used before the subject "he". But usually, in a question mark sentence, we use this formatting. But the given sentence is in indirect speech. So, this is not a question mark sentence. So, "was" will be used after the subject "he".
  • In the fourth sentence, the topic is about the narrator's brother who lives abroad. But the fact that he lives abroad is a long-lasting statement. So, the tense of the sentence has to be in the present indefinite. So, "lives" will be used as the verb instead of "is living".
