Answers and Explanation:
Q1. (4) No Error
Q2. (1) In this sentence there is an error of unattached participle because the subject of each part is different. Hence Adverbial clause (while) along.....will be a correct usage.
Q3. (1) Verb "tell" is always followed by an object. Hence, He says/ He is saying/ He is telling me.....should be used.
Q4. (2) Hence, great skill in keeping should be used. The word skill means : the ability to do something well, while the word talent means :a natural ability to do something.
Q5. (2) One of is followed by a Plural Noun/ Pronoun but a Singular verb. Hence, one of the volcanic eruptions takes place.........should be used.
Q6. (1) Here, Passive Voice should be used. Hence, tea is grown will be a correct usage.
Q7. (3) Article "the" is not used before the words- jail, prison, school, college etc. in general sense. Hence, he had in jail......is a correct usage.
Q8. (4) No error
