Alternativa correta: E - All answers are wrong.

Vamos analisar cada uma das alternativas para entender por que todas estão incorretas.

1. He was like a cock who thought the sun risen to hear him crow.

Esta frase apresenta problemas com o uso do particípio passado "risen". A estrutura correta seria "had risen", pois o verbo "had" é necessário para formar o tempo verbal past perfect, que é adequado neste contexto. Portanto, a frase correta seria: "He was like a cock who thought the sun had risen to hear him crow."

2. Martina laugh when her mother dropped a pie upside down on the floor.

Nesta frase, o verbo "laugh" está no tempo verbal errado. O correto seria "laughed", no passado simples, para concordar com "dropped". A frase correta seria: "Martina laughed when her mother dropped a pie upside down on the floor."

3. Because he was so small, Stuart is often hard to find around the house.

Aqui, há um problema de consistência temporal. O início da frase está no passado ("was"), mas depois ela utiliza o presente ("is"). Para manter a consistência, a frase correta seria: "Because he was so small, Stuart was often hard to find around the house."

4. If a man don’t keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hear a different drummer.

Esta frase contém dois erros: o uso incorreto de "don’t" (ao invés de "doesn't") e "hear" (ao invés de "hears"). A frase correta seria: "If a man doesn’t keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer."

Portanto, como todas as frases apresentadas contêm erros gramaticais, a alternativa correta é a letra E: "All answers are wrong."
