    Question

    The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error.
    When the train pulled in / at the station, it take / Joseph some time / to get off.

    A.

    When the train pulled in

    B.

    at the station, it take

    C.

    Joseph some time

    D.

    to get off

    Correct option is B

    The error is in segment (b): "at the station, it take."
     The verb "take" should be in the past tense form, "took," to agree with the past tense verb "pulled" in the first segment.
     Therefore, the corrected sentence would be: "When the train pulled in at the station, it took Joseph some time to get off."
