Question : Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error. If there is no error, select 'No Error'.
Before Jeny could stop him, Daniel / bounding off the bed, seized Jery's / desk lamp, and started beating himself.
Option 1: desk lamp, and started beating himself
Option 2: no error
Option 3: before Jerry could stop him, Daniel
Option 4: bounding off the bed, seized Jerry's
Correct Answer: bounding off the bed, seized Jerry's
Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option .
Bounding off should be changed to bounded off to correctly form the phrasal verb, which means to move away from one place. It helps convey that Daniel quickly jumped off the bed to seize Jery's desk lamp before Jeny could stop him.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "Before Jeny could stop him, Daniel bounded off the bed, seized Jery's desk lamp, and started beating himself."
