Q1. He is the person (A)/ we have been looking (B)/ for. (C)/ No error (D) (find error)
No error
The sentence uses a relative clause with a trailing preposition, which is acceptable in modern English. No part is grammatically wrong.
A preposition at the end of a clause is often acceptable in everyday English.
That is the book I am looking for.
Q2. Life is as dear (A)/ to a mute creature (B)/ as it is to a man. (C)/ No error (D) (find error)
D
The sentence uses a correct "as... as" comparison and remains parallel and clear. No error detected.
Keep the parts after "as" and before "as" parallel in comparisons.
He is as brave as he is loyal.
Q3. The young child (A)/ singed (B)/ a very sweet song. (C)/ No error (D) (find error)
"The young child sang a very sweet song." The past tense of "sing" is "sang," not "singed."
Q4. He worked (A)/ very hard (B)/ throughout the season.(C)/ No error (D) (find error)
D. No error
The sentence is correct: "He worked very hard throughout the season." The adverb "very" correctly modifies "hard," and "throughout the season" is a proper time phrase.

She ran very fast in the race.
