Correct Answer: at the eye
Solution : The error lies in the first option.
Explanation:
The preposition "in" is used with the phrase "looked him in the eye" to indicate direct eye contact. The original sentence incorrectly used "at" instead of "in." The corrected version maintains proper grammar and idiomatic usage.
Therefore, the correct sentence would be: "I looked him in the eye and told him all I knew."
