Correct Answer: 3
Solution : The third part of the sentence contains an error.
"Charged straight after me" is wrong as it would mean the bird is chasing the person. However, the scenario does not suggest that. The correct preposition to be used is "charged straight at me." "At" is a preposition of location and in this context, "me" is a location, which the is charging toward.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "As if aware of my condition, the infuriated bird suddenly doubled back on its course and charged straight at me. "
