The old bus conductor / was angry on the college boys / who kept standing near the door / even after his warning.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → was angry on the college boys
When the feeling is towards a person, “angry” takes with (or “at”), not “on”. So it must be angry with the college boys.
Option 1: The old bus conductor — No error.
Option 2: was angry on the college boys — Error. “angry on” should be “angry with”.
Option 3: who kept standing near the door — No error.
Option 4: even after his warning — No error.
Corrected: The old bus conductor was angry with the college boys who kept standing near the door even after his warning.
