Question : Select the option that will improve the underlined part of the given sentence. In case no improvement is needed, select 'No improvement required'.
The district woken up to a thick blanket of snow this morning as the winter entered its most bitter phase.
Option 1: wake up to a
Option 2: No improvement required
Option 3: awaken up to an
Option 4: woke up to a
Correct Answer: woke up to a
Solution : The fourth option is the correct answer.
The reason for this improvement is that "woken" is the past participle form of the verb "wake" and it is typically used with an auxiliary verb such as has, have, or had. In this context, the simple past form "woke" is more appropriate for describing the action of waking up to the snow in the district this morning.
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: The district woke up to a thick blanket of snow this morning as the winter entered its most bitter phase.
