Previous Year Question (PYQs)
4
The word “Run” is used in four ways. Choose the sentence in which the usage is incorrect/inappropriate:
I. I must run fast to catch up with him.
II. Our team scored a goal against the run of play.
III. You can't run over him like that.
IV. The newly released book is enjoying a popular run.
Solution
solution: I and II are standard uses (verb; idiom “against the run of play”). III can be correct (“run over someone” with a vehicle). “A popular run” is idiomatic for shows/films, not for a book.
