Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFThe correct answer is 'late to the class; he has been warn'.
Key Points
- The given sentence is grammatically incorrect.
- Here, 'late to the class; he has been warned' should be used instead of 'late to the class; he has been warn'.
- The corrected sentence uses the past participle form "warned" to indicate that the student has already received the warning from the teacher in the past.
- The present perfect tense is used to indicate that the warning occurred at an unspecified time in the past and may have continued up to the present.
- In contrast, the original sentence used the present tense form "warn" which is incorrect because it does not match the tense of the rest of the sentence.
- Thus, the correct answer is Option 4.
Correct Sentence: One of the students is always late to the class; he has been warned by the teacher many times; but still, he keeps on being late.
