Correct Answer: 2
Solution : The phrase "like a mule" in part (2) is incorrect because it doesn't convey the intended meaning. Instead, it should be "because he is tall" to explain why he can be a basketball player. "Like a mule" is a simile that doesn't fit in this context.
To correct the sentence, it should be:
"He can be a basketball player because he is tall. "
