The correct answer is Option 2.
 
Key Points
  • The primary issue in the sentence is the tense inconsistency in part 2, where "realises" should be "realized" to maintain past tense consistency.
  • The correct phrase should be "until she realized," ensuring grammatical correctness and clarity.
  • Thus, the error is located in part 2 of the sentence.
Therefore, the correct answer is 2.
 
Correct Sentence: "Alka had been writing to her boss until she realized that he was not interested in resolving her issues."
 
Additional Information
  • 1: "Alka had been writing" – This part of the sentence is grammatically correct and does not require any changes.
  • 3: "that he was not interested in resolving her issues" – This part of the sentence is grammatically correct and does not require any changes.
  • 4: "No error" – This would be the correct option if there were no mistakes in the sentence, but there is an error in part 2.
