Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. was always told us
- The error is in the phrase "was always told us," which is not grammatically correct.
- The verb "told" should not be used with "was always" in this context.
- The correct structure is "Our neighbor always told us," where "told" is the past tense of the verb used correctly.
Hence, the correct option would be was always told us.
