Correct Answer: (1)


Solution : The correct choice is the first option .

Explanation : The correct tense to use when specifying a particular time in the past is the simple past tense. Therefore, "has given" should be replaced with "gave" to correctly convey that the action (giving orders) occurred in the past, specifically yesterday.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: The officer gave orders to his soldiers yesterday.
