Question

Which sentence has an inappropriate shift in verb tense? • By the time Grandma arrives, Chloe will have cleaned her room. ,• celeb felt calm because he knows the solution to his problem .•. Jasmin will ride her bike after she walks her dog. •. Diego had read for twenty minutes before he played video games​

Answer 1

Answer: Celeb felt calm because he knows the solution to his problem .

Explanation: This sentence should be written in either of these two ways: "Celeb felt calm because he knew the solution to his problem", or "Celeb feels calm because he knows the solution to his problem."

• This is because "felt" is past tense, and "knows" is present tense. Both of these words need to be either present or past tense for a grammatically correct sentence.
