C Correct answer
Explanation

Here, ‘3’ is the correct option as part (3) of the sentence has the error. Here, both the events – the exam and the movie - happened in the past, but one happened before the other (past perfect). Thus, according to the rule of grammar, both verbs should be in the past tense. “Had finished” is in past perfect but “would go” is not. So, the correct should be “went”, instead of “would go”.
