The tribunal noted that the driver of the (offend) truck did not lead any evidence in rebuttal of the claims.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2, i.e. offending.
- The main tense of the statement by the subject (tribunal) is portrayed in the past tense. So, to make accurate sense it is important that we use the continuous form of the verb (offend) by the object (truck driver) of the sentence. The other options either imply itself as a noun (offence) or is incorrect in it's form (offencing).
