(3) Thoughts about the
(4) No Error
Option 1: (1)
Option 2: (2)
Option 3: (3)
Option 4: (4)
Correct Answer: (1)
Solution : The error is in the first option.
The phrase "is uppermost on my mind" should be changed to "are uppermost on my mind" to match the subject "thoughts," which is a plural noun. The subject "thoughts" requires the plural verb "are" instead of the singular "is," according to subject-verb agreement.
Therefore, the correct sentence should be "Thoughts about the slaughtered children are uppermost on my mind."
