Question

The given sentence is divided into four segments. Select the option that has the segment with a grammatical error.
When I saw / her, she write / a poem / with full attention.

A.

her, she write

B.

a poem

C.

with full attention.

D.

when I saw

Correct option is A

Option (a) contains an error.
Explanation:
· The verb "write" is incorrect because the sentence is in the past tense.
· "When I saw" indicates that the action happened in the past, so the verb must also be in the past continuous form.
· Correct phrase: "her, she was writing"
Grammatical Rule Used:
· When describing an action in progress at a specific time in the past, use the past continuous tense (was/were + V-ing).
· Example: "When I saw her, she was reading a book."
Corrected Sentence:
· "When I saw her, she was writing a poem with full attention."
