Correct Answer: glitters were not gold
Solution : The correct choice is the first option .
The error is in "glitters were not gold". The correct sentence should be "all that glitter is not gold". The phrase "all that glitters is not gold" means that not everything that looks valuable or attractive is actually valuable or useful. The verb "is" should be used instead of "were" because "all that glitters" is a singular noun phrase.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: My teacher said to me that all that glitter is not gold .
