Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. he asked me money.
The error lies in the third part: "he asked me money." The correct phrase should be "he asked me for money".
The verb "ask" is typically followed by the preposition "for" when requesting something.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "When Ramu was working as a clerk, he asked me for money."
