Correct Answer: (1)
Solution : The correct choice is the first option .
It should be "roots" instead of "rootings" as "roots" is a noun and cannot be used as a gerund. "Roots" is the appropriate word, as it refers to one's origins, ancestry, or cultural background.
So, the correct sentence should be: "He built the theatre as a tribute to his roots, and the thought of it outlasting him, would surely have given him the greatest joy."
