Correct Answer: the days had pass
Solution : The correct option is the fourth option.
Explanation: The error lies in the verb tense inconsistency in the part the days had pass.
The correct past participle form of the verb pass is passed. This ensures proper agreement between the auxiliary verb had and the correct past participle form passed.
The past perfect tense is appropriate here because it indicates an action (the passing of days) completed before another past action (the mother's exclamation).
So, the correct sentence would be: "My mother exclaimed at how fast the days had passed".
