Correct Answer: 1


Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

"We have done" should be replaced with "we did" to emphasise the tense consistency action, indicating that everything was done to avert the storm. 

The sentence should be: "We had done everything that could be done to avert the storm which is now coming on."
