Question 42

In the intended relative clause, the report is the thing that was filed. Which version is grammatical?

  1. The report was filed yesterday contains an error.
  2. The report that was filed yesterday contains an error.Bonne réponse
  3. The report that it was filed yesterday contains an error.
  4. The report, was filed yesterday, contains an error.

Explication

That is the grammatical subject of the passive verb phrase was filed, so it cannot be omitted. The version beginning the report was filed is the closest distractor because the two adjacent finite verb phrases cannot form the intended relative structure without a linker.
