Correct Answer: George handing the
Solution : The first option is correct.
- The error in the sentence is in the segment "George handing the".
- The sentence describes an action in the past, which is George handing a hairpin to Ron.
- To convey this action in the correct past tense, the verb should be "handed" (past tense), not "handing" (present participle).
Hence, the correct sentence should be: "George handed the hairpin to Ron, a moment later."
