Correct Answer: 1


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

The discrepancy arises from the fact that the subject of the sentence is "you" which is a second-person singular subject. Consequently, a second-person singular subject necessitates a second-person singular verb. The verb "are" fulfils this requirement and is needed to form a proper question. The corrected sentence maintains proper subject-verb agreement and grammatical structure.

Hence, the correct sentence should be: " Why are you copying your homework from someone else?"
