[amp_mcq option1=”When the dentist came in” option2=”my tooth was stopped aching” option3=”out of fear that I might lose my tooth” option4=”No error” correct=”option4″]

The correct answer is: D. No error

The sentence is grammatically correct. The word “stopped” is used correctly to indicate that the aching stopped. The phrase “out of fear that I might lose my tooth” is a subordinate clause that provides a reason for the aching stopping.

The sentence could be improved by adding more detail. For example, the writer could say “When the dentist came in, my tooth stopped aching because I was no longer afraid that I might lose it.”
