Correct Answer: (2)
Solution : The error lies in the second part of the sentence.
The verb was should be replaced with had to show that the person had left for the airport before the people reached his house. This part of the sentence is in the past perfect tense, which is used for actions that happened earlier than the other actions in the past.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "Although we reached his house in time, he had left for the airport."
