Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. there was a good idea.
Given sentence: We thought / there was a good idea / to wear snow boots / before we stepped out.
As 'idea' is a singular object so the pronoun used should also be singular, so it should be used instead of there.
Correct sentence: We thought / it was a good idea / to wear snow boots / before we stepped out.
