The correct answer is option 4) "Today, in fit of frenzied rage and."

Key Points

  • The correct phrase should be "Today, in a fit of frenzied rage and jealousy."
  • The error lies in the absence of the article "a" before "fit."
  • Including the article "a" before "fit" helps to clarify that it refers to a single instance or occurrence of frenzied rage and jealousy.
  • Without the article, the sentence sounds incomplete or lacking proper grammar.
  • Option 4) correctly identifies the segment containing the error.
     

Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "Today, in a fit of frenzied rage and jealousy, you would have killed me, your brother."
