Question

Identify the part of the sentence that has a mistake. \[ \text{The train / was left / the station / half an hour ago. \] \[ \text{1 _ _ _ _ 2 _ _ _ _ 3 _ _ _ _ 4} \]

• A. 1
• B. 2
• C. 3
• D. 4

Hint:

Use “left” for simple past active voice; “was left” is passive and changes the meaning.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Concept:
The sentence describes an action completed in the past. The correct simple past form is: \[ \text{left} \] not \[ \text{was left} \] because the train itself performed the action of leaving.

Step 1: Identify the error. The phrase \[ \text{was left} \] makes the sentence passive, but here active voice is required.

Step 2: Correct the sentence. The correct sentence should be: \[ \text{The train left the station half an hour ago.} \]

Step 3: Final answer. \[ \boxed{2} \]
