Solution

The correct option is B B
The given sentence talks about drinking several cups of water in tropical climate in order to stay healthy. This is a general fact which is true globally. When stating facts or general rules/principles, we must use simple present tense. The subject here is 'person' which is singular. Therefore, the verb tense that needs to be used is 'drinks'. Therefore, the incorrect part of the sentence is [B] and the correct answer is (B).
