I have the opportunity to study in America next year.
- (a)I have the opportunity
- (b)to study
- (c)in America next year.
- (d)No error
Answer
D
Why
Correct — D, No error. The sentence is well formed: 'have the opportunity' is correctly followed by the to-infinitive 'to study', and 'in America next year' is a correct place-and-time phrase. Nothing needs changing.
Why the others are wrong
- (a)I have the opportunity — A correct subject-verb-object opening; not the error.
- (b)to study — 'Opportunity' correctly takes the to-infinitive ('opportunity to study'); not the error.
- (c)in America next year. — A correct place-and-time phrase; not the error.
Concept
Error-spotting item whose answer is 'No error' — the noun 'opportunity' correctly takes a to-infinitive complement.
