Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1, i.e. not to crack.
- The error in the given sentence is that it uses the determiner 'to' twice.
- This is completely unnecessary as it does not add any extra meaning or detail to the sentence and only makes it sound odd.
- Hence, this option is correct because it uses 'to' only once and makes accurate sense as well as making the statement sound appropriate.
