That Brutus, who was his trusted friend(a) had attacked on him(b) caused heartbreak to Julius Caesar(c). No error.(d)

A) a B) b
C) c D) d
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) b

Explanation:

‘Attacked on him’ is the incorrect form of phrasal verb that needs to be replaced with ‘Attacked him’ to make the sentence correct. This is because; ‘Attack’ is not followed by any preposition. Thus, the correct sentence would be, ‘That Brutus, who was his trusted friend had attacked him caused heartbreak to Julius Caesar’.
