Correct Answer: (3)


Solution : The error lies in the third part of the sentence.

Here, "since" should replace "from" in the sentence as "from" is used to refer to the starting point of time, whereas "since" is used to refer to the time passed from then until now, which is the intended meaning of the sentence.

Therefore, the correct sentence is "She has been complaining about a headache since morning ".
