Spot the error.Two dogs started to snarl at one another so I had to separate them.
Correct answer: C. So
- A. To snarl at
- B. One another
- C. So
- D. To separate
Explanation
This part is incorrect. The conjunction "so" is used to indicate a result or consequence, but the sentence needs a clearer connection between the two clauses. In this case, "so" is appropriate if the sentence is intended to show causality (one action leading to another).
