Correct Answer: (2)
Solution : The error lies in the second part.
The phrasal verb "looked upon" should be replaced with "looked at". "Look upon" means to consider or think of someone or something in a stated way, whereas "look at" means to analyse or study something mentally.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "He looked at me eye to eye for a few moments before he spoke."
