Correct Answer: be hurry,


Solution : The error lies in the second option.

Explanation:
Be hurry is not the correct collocation in English. In this context, must hurry serves as a directive phrase, indicating a strong recommendation or requirement to move quickly. It's a common way to express urgency or the need for prompt action without using the phrase "be in a hurry".

Therefore, the correct sentence should be: You must hurry, otherwise you will miss the train.
