Correct Answer: (3)


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

Explanation: The subject "large balloons" is plural, and the verb "is" is singular. To maintain the subject-verb agreement, the verb should be plural. Therefore, the correct form should be "are" instead of "is".

So, the correct sentence would be: "The large balloons I bought for Christmas are very nice."
