Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. yesterday had took.

  • The error is in the segment "yesterday had took."
  • The correct form should be "yesterday took."
  • The past tense of "take" is "took," so the past perfect form "had took" is incorrect here.
  • Therefore, the corrected sentence would be: "My elder brother yesterday took my Facebook password."
