Correct Answer: (1)


Solution : The error lies in the first part of the sentence.

The verb requested should be replaced with ordered/asked because the sentence indicates an order.

The correct sentence should be: "We asked/ordered the watchman to clean up the basement so that the children might have enough space to play."
