Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. make to stand.

  1. The error lies in option 4 because of the wrong use of "Form of the verb".
  2. We need to replace "Make" with "Made" for making the statement grammatically correct.

Grammatical concept:- 

  • "Modal verb + be + past participle" is the correct verb phrase.
  • "Made" is the correct past participle form of the verb "Make".
  • The chosen option contains the Grammatical Error hence, it will be the correct choice.

Correct Sentence:-

This bottle must not be made to stand close to the fire.
