Correct Answer: that he would sure repay


Solution : The error lies in the fourth option.

The error is the word sure. It should be replaced with surely to make the sentence grammatically correct. The word surely is the correct adverb to modify the verb repay and indicate that he will repay the loan.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: He promised them that he would surely repay the loan urgently.
