Don't Miss: Month-wise current affairs
Suggested: Upcoming government exams
Correct Answer: hurries down
Solution : The first option is the correct answer.
The original sentence has a subject-verb agreement issue. The subject "girl" is singular, but the verb "hurry" is in the plural form "hurry up". In English, when the subject is singular, the verb should be in the singular form, which is "hurries" in this case.
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: The little girl chatters away as she hurries down the road with her mother.
