Correct Answer: (3)
Solution : The error lies in the third part of the sentence.
"Alarm bells" should be replaced with "alarm bell", as it is a singular noun that is being talked about in the sentence. Hence, the plural form should not be used in the sentence.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "Outside, the rain beats down in floods, and the sea gives forth a sound like an alarm bell ."
