Correct Answer: have no doubt that there is a lesson


Solution : The first option is the correct answer.

The original sentence contains a subject-verb agreement error. "I" is a singular pronoun, and the verb "has" is the third-person singular form of "to have". However, the correct form in this case is "have" because "I" requires the first-person singular form of the verb.

Therefore, the correct sentence should be: I have no doubt that there is a lesson which stands to be learnt from Alice's misfortune.
