I will watch film if I finish the work in time.
- (a)I will watch film
- (b)if I finish the work
- (c)in time.
- (d)No Error
Correct — A, 'I will watch film.' 'Film' here is a singular countable noun, so it needs an article — 'I will watch a film' (or 'the film'). Dropping the article leaves the noun bare, making segment (a) the error.
- (b)if I finish the work — Error-free — the first-conditional 'if' clause correctly uses the present simple 'finish'.
- (c)in time. — Error-free — 'in time' correctly means with enough time to spare.
- (d)No Error — There is an error — the countable noun 'film' needs the article 'a' — so 'No Error' is not the answer.
This is an error-spotting item on articles — a singular countable noun such as 'film' must take an article ('a film' or 'the film') and cannot stand bare.
