Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Answer: Error is in "He have never".
Explanation: 'He' is a third-person singular subject, so the correct auxiliary verb is 'has', not 'have'.
Rule: For third-person singular subjects (he, she, it), use 'has' with perfect constructions or appropriate singular verb forms.
Correction: Replace 'have' with 'has'. Corrected sentence: 'He has never and will never take your suggestion on this project.'
Improved wording: To make the tenses clearer, use the past participle in the first clause: 'He has never taken and will never take your suggestion on this project.'
Therefore, the erroneous part of the sentence is the phrase 'He have never'.
