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."
