Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFThe correct answer is 'Option 1' (A).
Key Points
- The error is in segment 'A' ("The match would have won").
- It should be "would have been won" to make the sentence passive, making the sentence: "The match would have been won".
- This type of error stems from incorrect usage of verb forms in the passive voice.
Therefore, the correct answer is 'Option 1' (A).
Additional Information
- Option 2 (B) 'by our', does not contain an error once the clause in segment A is corrected.
- Option 3 (C) 'team', is grammatically correct.
- Option 4 (D) 'No error', is incorrect because an error exists in segment A.
