Correct Answer: (1)


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

There is an error in the subject-verb agreement in the sentence. The verb "have" should be replaced with "has" to convey the intended meaning that each student needs to submit the assignment by that afternoon. The singular form of the auxiliary verb, "has", should be used to be in agreement with the singular subject.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: Every student has to submit the assignment by this afternoon.
