Option 1: (1)
Option 2: (2)

Option 4: (4)
Correct Answer: (4)
Solution : The error is in the fourth option.
The correct phrase is "hearing these strange noises above." which describes the action of hearing strange noises. The use of the demonstrative pronoun "these" indicates that there were numerous noises, and thus the plural form "noises" should be used.
Therefore, the correct sentence is, "Hearing these strange noises above, the thought at once occurred to me that thieves had entered the house."
