Solution

The correct option is B B
Option B is the correct answer because it is illogical to use the word 'stooped' in the given sentence. 'Stooped' means habitually bent forwards, hence, it should be replaced with 'stopped' which means to come to an end.
Options A, C and D are incorrect because there are no errors in these parts of the sentence. Option E is incorrect because there is an error in the given sentence.
