The erroneous part is option 4) i.e. 'careful while executed the.'

Key Points

  • The error lies in the part 'careful while executed the.'
  • According to the rules of grammar, when an action is in progress at a certain time, we need to use 'continuous form of verb' after the conjunction 'while.'
  • In the given sentence, the verb 'execute' is not in continuous form. The continuous form is 'executing.'
  • Therefore in the given sentence, we need to use 'executing' in place of 'execute' to make the sentence grammatically correct.
  • Hence, the correct answer is option 4.

 

Correct sentence: The manager told her that she should be a bit more careful while executing the orders of the company.
