Correct Answer: 2
Solution : In this sentence, the phrase "up to Sunday" is not the appropriate way to indicate deadline. A suitable preposition is needed to convey the idea that the work should be finished before Sunday.
"By Sunday" is the correct alternative because by is used for the latest time reference and it effectively indicates that the work should be completed before Sunday. "On to Sunday" and 'within Sunday' are not the correct phrases.
So, the correct sentence is: "You must complete this work by Sunday. "
