Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: The woman who kidnapped a child has now been apprehended and is being held in the city’s jail.
The other options are incorrect for the following reasons:
- Option A: “The woman that had” is incorrect because it uses the relative pronoun “that” to refer to a human being. The correct relative pronoun to use for a human being is “who.”
- Option B: “kidnapped a child” is correct.
- Option C: “has now” is correct.
- Option D: “been apprehended and is being” is incorrect because it uses the present participle “being” to modify the past participle “apprehended.” The correct verb tense to use is the past tense.
- Option E: “No error” is incorrect because the sentence contains an error in option A.
The sentence should read: The woman who kidnapped a child has now been apprehended and is being held in the city’s jail.
