?
Because of the cricket tournament / organizational work hardly / I have had any / rest since one week.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
D
The phrase "rest since one week" is incorrect.
Correct usage should be "rest for one week" or "rest since last week."
The word "since" is used to refer to a specific point in time, while "for" is used to refer to a duration of time.
Therefore, the sentence should be corrected to: "Because of the cricket tournament organizational work, I have had hardly any rest for one week."
Correct usage should be "rest for one week" or "rest since last week."
The word "since" is used to refer to a specific point in time, while "for" is used to refer to a duration of time.
Therefore, the sentence should be corrected to: "Because of the cricket tournament organizational work, I have had hardly any rest for one week."

Login"Because of the cricket tournament's organisational work, I have hardly had any rest for the past week."
The mistakes in the original sentence are:
- "cricket/tournament" should be "cricket tournament's" (possessive form)
- "hardly" was in the wrong position, it should be after "have" to indicate "scarcely" or "almost not"
- "since one week" is incorrect, it should be "for the past week" to indicate the duration of time.
Note: The corrected sentence assumes that the speaker has been working on organizing a cricket tournament and has had very little rest for the past week.
For is used for duration
After have/has/had V3 form must be there,
Has had
Have had
Had had
But how can it be had have
Can you please once
