Which sentence below contains a spelling error?

The sentence 'I recieved her letter of resignation' contains a spelling error.

Option D.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The correct spellings of 'recieved' are 'received'.

The word 'receive' means getting something from someone or something. For example: Allison received a medal for winning the drawing contest. In this sentence, Allison was given a medal by her school.

The word follows a very old and common English vocabulary rule called: I before E except after C. According to this rule, in certain words, alphabet 'i' shall be placed before alphabet 'e' as long as they are preceding the alphabet 'c'. For example: In F-R-I-E-N-D, I is placed before E as they are not [preceding the alphabet C; which in this word does not exist entirely.

But, if the letters 'i' and 'e' are to be placed right after alphabet 'c', then the 'e' shall precede 'i'. For example: In words such as 'R-E-C-E-I-V-E' and 'P-E-R-C-E-I-V-E', E precedes I as they both are placed right after 'c'.

To avoid this common mistake, it is advised to refer to a spell check.

Answer:

B). The narrator falls and breaks a rib and collarbone.

Explanation:

Foreshadowing is demonstrated as the literary device in which the author provides an advance clue or hint about the forthcoming event in the story. It primarily functions to

In the given sentence, the author foreshadows 'the narrator's falling and breaking off his rib and collarbone.' The narrator falls and injures himself.

Thus, it helps in keeping the interest of the readers intact as the readers expected a tragic end but the writer twists the conclusion by describing how the author handled himself and his injury. Therefore, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.
