Explanation
151. (B) Use 'other' after 'any'.
152. (C) Replace 'was' with 'were'. The subject of the sentence is plural (A loaf of bread and bottles).
Therefore, the verb must be plural.
153. (C) No error. The sentence is correct.
154. (D) Use 'its' in place of 'their'. A singular pronoun adjective (its, not theirs) must be used to
refer to a collective noun (company) when the members of the collective noun are
considered a unit.
155. (D) Use 'seems'. Collective nouns, as well as noun phrases denoing a fixed quantity, frequently
take a singular verb because the group or quantity is usually regarded as a unit.
