The error lies in the fourth part of the sentence. The verb ‘withstand’ needs to be replaced by its participle form, ‘withstood’, to accurately agree with the ‘have’ verb preceding it.
Thus, option D is the correct answer.
The sentence is present perfect tense, where the verb should be in past participle. The past participle of "arise" is "arisen". Hence, the correct answer is B.
In the given sentence, "had" should be followed by the past participle form of the verb. The past participle of "burst" is the verb itself, i.e. "burst". Hence, the correct answer is A.
The fact that the speakers (we) found the table perfect for their kitchen, implies that "we" were refurbishing the kitchen. In that case, they must have bought the table. So, it should be "bought" instead of "brought" in part (1). Hence, the correct answer is A.
When someone gives money, we use the verb "lend". In the given case, "one" has to repay. This implies that it was "one" who took the money. In such cases, where the subject takes the money, we use "borrow". So, it should be "borrow" instead of "lend" in part (2). Hence, the correct answer is B.
In the given sentence, the police are instructing people to do something. In such case, where direct orders are given, we use "tell" instead of "say". "Say" is used to denote what was spoken. So, it should be "told" instead of "said" in part (1). Hence, the correct answer is A.
When the sentence mentions the source of the act, we use "take", not "brought". In the given case, the source of the court injunction, "he" is the subject. So, it should be "took" instead or "brought" in part (1). Hence, the correct answer is A.
The error is in the fourth part of the sentence.
In part 4, the word ‘gone’ requires an auxiliary verb such as has, have, had, is, am, are, was, were, be, etc, e.g- They have gone to the movies. In case we don’t use an auxiliary verb, ‘went’ should replace ‘gone’, as it never takes an auxiliary verb, e.g - They went to the movies. But here the action had taken place at an earlier time frame. Hence, we need to use ‘had gone’.
Therefore, option D is the correct choice for this question.
The error is in the third part of the sentence. In part 3, ‘practise’ should be used in place of ‘practice’, because he word “practice” is a noun, it refers to an act itself, not who is doing it. On the other hand, practise is a verb, which means 'to do something repeatedly to improve one skill'.
Therefore, option A is the correct choice for this question.
The error is in the second part of the given sentence.
In part 2, ‘were’ should be replaced by ‘was’. It is because when two or subjects are connected by ‘not only-but also’, ‘neither-nor', ‘either-or', ‘none-but', the verb is according to the nearest subject (in this case, ‘teacher’ is the nearest subject).
