She didn't tell anybody about her plans.
- (a)She didn't
- (b)tell anybody
- (c)about her plans.
- (d)No Error
Correct — D, 'No Error.' The sentence is fully grammatical — 'didn't' correctly carries the past tense so the base form 'tell' follows, the indefinite 'anybody' is the right choice in a negative sentence, and 'about her plans' uses the correct preposition and possessive. No segment contains a fault.
- (a)She didn't — Error-free — 'didn't' is the correct past negative auxiliary.
- (b)tell anybody — Error-free — the base form 'tell' after 'didn't' and 'anybody' in a negative sentence are both correct.
- (c)about her plans. — Error-free — 'about' is the right preposition and 'her plans' the correct possessive.
This is an error-spotting item that is deliberately fault-free — 'didn't' carries the tense, 'tell' stays in the base form, and 'anybody' is correctly used in a negative statement, so 'No Error' is the answer.
