Correct Answer
(D)
Detailed Explanation
(4) (D) - "but receives no answer."
The error is in the verb tense. It should be "but received no answer" to maintain past tense consistency with the previous part of the sentence. So, the corrected sentence would be: "Crossing the terraced cultivated land, the father went to the edge of the steep hill and called out repeatedly to his son but received no answer."
