Correct Answer: (2)
Solution : The correct choice is the second option .
Explanation : The reason for the error is related to the use of the modal verb in the phrase "must have it amputated". The sentence would be grammatically correct if it used the construction "he had to get it amputated", which should be used to express the necessity of the amputation.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "The arm was so badly injured that he had to get it amputated."
