Answer 1

Correct answer is this.. Had the function not been postponed because of the strike she might have been able to participate.

Answer 2

Answer:

Had the function not been postponed because of the strike she might have been able to participate.

Replace "may" with "might" in option 4.

Hence, the correct option is (4).

Explanation:

Spotting errors are asked in verbal reasoning. You must identify grammatically incorrect sentences and errors.  Errors can be anything, including noun, pronoun, singular, plural, and word usage. In this section, spelling mistakes are typically not asked.  

There is a modal verb error in the given sentence. The modal verb "may" must be replaced with "might" in option 4. Hence, 'Had the function not been postponed because of the strike she might have been able to participate' is the most appropriate answer.
