Anthony is taking Denise out for a ride in his new car. He drives fast down the highway. Suddenly Denise screams, “Look out!” A truck shifts into their lane, right in front of them. Anthony slams his foot on the brake; hard. The car swerves first to the right, then to the left. “Don’t use the brake!” Denise shouts. Anthony takes his foot off the brake and regains control of the car. “We’re safe,” Anthony says to Denise

3. Inappropriate shift: It should be they had to take the long road... Again it is referencing plural and not singular
4. Inappropriate shift: It should be and gave them water to drink.
