Select the most appropriate option that can substitute the underlined segment in the given sentence.
She has checked everything she needs before started work.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. before starting work.
The underlined part is grammatically incorrect.
After the preposition “before”, we need an object of the preposition.
Thus, in place of the verb “started”, use V-ing form “starting”(non-finite).
The correct sentence will be: She has checked everything she needs before starting work.
