b. 2
c. 3
d. 4
e. 5
ANSWER: 1
Replace ‘with’ with ‘by’
With denotes the instrument or thing with which something is done. By denotes that agent or doer.
The correct sentence should be: She was taken by surprise when she saw the famous Taj Mahal.
Example: Ravana was killed by Ram with an arrow.
He beat the dog with a stick.
He shall reach here by four o’clock.
‘By’ is also used in future tense to express time up to the last stage.
