Correct Answer: (2)


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

To denote the time duration correctly, "between" is effectively linked with "and", whereas "from" is effectively linked with "to." Thus, "from" should replace "between" in the sentence as "from" denotes the starting point.

Therefore, the correct sentence is "The period from 1980 to 1990 was very significant in my life".
