Option 2: (2)

Solution : The error lies in the first part of the sentence.
The reason for the error is the incorrect use of the word "adopt" when it should be "adapt". "Adapt" means to adjust or change according to the changing circumstances, while "adopt" means to take something as one's own.
So, the correct sentence should be: "You should learn to adapt yourself to the changing circumstances."
