Step Type Explanation Answer

1

Problem

If you do not glue them properly, it leads to the collapse of the tower.

2

Clue

The verbs in every sentence must agree in tense, mood, and number.

3

Hint

The word 'may' reflects the probability of the tower’s collapse if not glued properly.

4

Choice.A

If you do not glue them properly, it leads to the collapse of the tower.

The sentence lacks grammatical parallelism. It doesn’t maintain consistency in verb tense. "Leads" does not agree in tense with the subsequent "collapse," creating a grammatical inconsistency.

No change

5

Choice.B

If you do not glue them properly, it led to the collapse of the tower.

The sentence is incorrect because it uses "led" instead of "will lead." "Led" suggests the collapse has already happened, while the sentence aims to convey a future consequence.

led

6

Choice.C

If you do not glue them properly, it may lead to the collapse of the tower.

The sentence is correct because it uses "may lead to" to express a possibility of the collapse occurring in the future. This formulation communicates a potential consequence if the gluing is not done properly, allowing for uncertainty regarding the outcome.

may lead

7

Choice.D

If you do not glue them properly, it will have led to the collapse of the tower.

The sentence is incorrect because it uses "have led to" instead of the correct "will lead to." "Have led to" implies that the collapse has already occurred, while the intended meaning is a future consequence.

have led

If you do not glue them properly, it may lead to the collapse of the tower.
