Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Robert come to clean the stable.
- Option 2 has the grammatically incorrect part because the verb is in the wrong tense here.
- The sentence is in simple past tense so the verb must be in the past.
- Thus, "came" should be used in place of "come".
The correct sentence will be: All the horses, except one, always behaved in a rough manner when Robert came to clean the stable.
