He freed himself (1) / from the burglar’s hold (2) /and ran on (3) / the road.(4) / No Error (5)
Answer: C
The error is in part 3.
Run on the road describes where he ran; the sense is that he escaped into the road, so the preposition should be on to, or the verb ran out on to. The bare on leaves the movement unexpressed.
