Correct Answer: (3)


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

An altar is a table in a Christian church on which offerings like bread and wine are placed. Hence, the preposition to be used is "on" instead of "in" .

Therefore, the correct sentence is: She placed the offering to God on the altar.
