Correct Answer: 1
Solution : The error lies in the first part of the sentence.
It correctly uses the past perfect tense (had never seen) to refer to a time before the recognition, and the past simple tense (recognised) for the action that occurred later. Additionally, the use of "at once" implies immediate recognition.
Therefore the correct sentence should be: "Although I had never seen the girl before, I recognised her at once from her photograph."
