      A No sooner the employees Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B completed the task Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C than the manager Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D presented them the incentives Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      When an adverb is used in the beginning of a sentence, the subject and the verb are placed in an opposite order. Hence, the sentence at the beginning should be ‘No sooner did the employees complete………..’. We introduce a helping verb ‘did’ since the sentence is in simple past and placing ‘completed’ before ‘employees’ would not be accurate and will not make a sense.
