A
the earth was stationery
💡 Explanation:
Error of vocabulary usage. The sentence implies that 'the earth was static, or not movable; fixed or still'. For this, we need adjective 'stationary', rather than the noun 'stationery' that means 'riting materials; specif., paper and envelopes used for letters'.
