BHe asked me how can he help me

CHe asked me how he could held me

DHe asked me how could he help me

Answer:

C. He asked me how he could held me

Read Explanation:

The grammatically acceptable sentence is:

"He asked me how he could help me."

The error in the original sentence is the use of "held" instead of "help." "Held" is the past tense of "hold," while "help" is the correct verb to use in this context.
