Correct Answer: 1
Solution : The error lies in the first part of the sentence.
When both events happened in the past, the event that happened earlier should be expressed in the past perfect tense. Hence, "I had reached" is the right usage. This is because the action of reaching the office happened before the rain started.
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: I had reached the office before the rain started.
