Solve the question according to given instruction
-

- go back on his promise and

- No error
- I never considered him to be a person who would
Correct Option: C
do (Aux. V.) will not be used because –
Each clause has to be structured in a way that is a complete sentence on its own.
Look at the structure below :
I never considered him to be a person who would go back on his promise. (Sentence I)
I never considered him to be a person who would not even apologize. (Sentence II)
Combining the two sentences –
I never considered him to be person who would go back on his promise and not even apologise.
Hence, not even apologise is the right usage. Use of –
would do not even apologize is incorrect.
