Correct Answer: (1)


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

The error is in the verb tense, and it should be changed from has been watching to has watched .
The present perfect continuous tense "has been watching" is not appropriate when referring to a specific number of times an action has occurred. Instead, the present perfect tense should be used in this context.

Therefore, the correct sentence would be: Ahmed has watched the Oscar nominated film three times.
