Correct Answer: 2


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

The word "direction" is a noun, and it requires a preposition to show how it is related to the other words of the sentence. The preposition "to" is typically used to show movement towards something, but it cannot be used with a noun that indicates direction. The preposition "towards" is more specific and idiomatic in this context because it indicates that the people are moving in the direction of the speaker.

Therefore, the correct sentence should be: They are coming straight towards our direction.
