Correct Answer: careful while executed the
Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option .
The error lies in the use of the verb form after "while". The correct form should be the gerund i.e., the noun form of the verb.
The word "executed" is in the past tense, which is incorrect in this context because it follows the conjunction "while".
To correct the sentence, we would have to use the gerund form ("executing") to indicate the ongoing or continuous action:
So, the corrected sentence would be: "The manager told her that she should be a bit more careful while executing the orders of the company."
