Find out which part of the sentence has an error and choose that part as your answer out of (1), (2) and (3). If the sentence is free from any error, then choose your answer as choice (4).
Show Hint
Use "It was" or "He/She was" instead of "Twas" for modern, standard English.
The phrase "Twas taken with surprise" contains an error in modern English usage.
"Twas" is a poetic or archaic contraction of "It was," and its use is not appropriate in everyday language.
In modern English, we would say "It was taken by surprise" or "He/She was taken by surprise," not "Twas taken with surprise."
Thus, the correct part of the sentence is "(1) Twas taken with surprise."
