Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e., went to sleep.
- The erroneous part of the sentence is "went to sleepy."
- This is grammatically incorrect as "sleepy" is an adjective, and in this context, it should be a noun, such as "sleep."
- Additionally, the preposition "to" is not necessary in this sentence.
A correct sentence is:
He blew out the candle and went to sleep.
