Select the most appropriate option to substitute the underlined segment in the given sentence. If there is no need to substitute it, select ‘No substitution required’.

Wasim agreed to share his notes with Arif on conditions that he are return them in a day.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. on the condition that he would return.

  • In the original sentence, the verb form "are return" is incorrect.
  • The correct verb form should be "would return" to indicate a future possibility or action in the past tense.
  • Additionally, the phrase "on conditions" should be revised to "on the condition" for the sentence talks about a particular condition.

Therefore, the corrected sentence reads: Wasim agreed to share his notes with Arif on the condition that he would return them in a day.
