Combine the Single error in EACH of the following sentence. Write down ONLY the question number and the word you have corrected.

Here's the correction for each sentence:

a) The sentence "South Africa's population is ageing rapid" has an error in the word "rapid". It should be an adverb to modify the verb "ageing".

5.1.1 (a) rapid → rapidly

b) The sentence "About 40% of people over 60 needs assisting with daily tasks" has an error in subject-verb agreement. "40% of people" is plural, so the verb should be plural.

5.1.1 (b) needs → need

c) The sentence "These helpers often take on the role of companion, cooker and cleaner" is missing a conjunction before the last item in the list.

5.1.1 (c) cooker and cleaner → cooker, and cleaner

d) The sentence "As health needs became more complex, if does the care required" has an error in verb tense and structure. "Does" is incorrect here; the sentence needs a verb that matches "became" and completes the thought.

5.1.1 (d) if does the → so does the
