(A) Unless you do not (B) hurry, you will (C) miss the train.

  1. A. (A)
  2. B. (B)
  3. C. (C)
  4. D. No error
Show answer and solution

Answer: (A) (A)

'Unless' already carries a negative meaning ('if not'), so adding 'not' creates a double negative. The correct clause is 'Unless you hurry'. Parts (B) and (C) correctly use the first conditional pattern.
