Answer is E
Hi Everyone,
At first this question seems tough to me but after understanding and spending more time than the usual time of attempting each SC question I got this correct. But I was not able to understand choice B completely. Well choice B is not the answer of this question, but I am not able to understand why the usage of "ones" is incorrect? Why "ones" cannot refer to signs?
I read in one of the posts that the usage of "ones" in choice B is incorrect, and it should be "them", not "ones".
I understand that "them" is also correct as it is plural that refers to "signs", but why can't it be "ones". This is also plural.
Looking forward to all of your replies.
Thanks & Regards
Sachin.
