Spot the error.I stay up lately at night reading stupid philosophies and wake up early to read some more.
Correct answer: A. lately
- A. lately
- B. wake up
- C. to read
- D. more
Explanation
"Lately, I've been staying up late at night reading stupid philosophies and waking up early to read some more."- "Lately" is an adverb that means "in recent times" or "recently".- In the original sentence, "lately" is incorrectly placed and implies that the speaker stays up late "at night lately", which doesn't make sense.- Moving "lately" to the beginning of the sentence or using "have been staying up" instead of "stay up" fixes the issue.
