Correct Answer: (1)
Solution : The error is in the first part of the sentence, as "were" is used, which is the plural verb and should be used with plural subjects. However, in this sentence, the subject "lawn" is singular, not plural, so "were" should be replaced with "was" to ensure that the verb agrees with the singular subject "lawn".
Therefore, the correct sentence is, "There was an extensive lawn in front of the bungalow."
