Correct Answer: (2)


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

The past form of the verb open i.e., opened should be replaced with open in this context as open is used as an adjective to describe the state of the museum.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: The curator told us that the museum was not open to the public on Sunday.
