Model Answer
| Error | Correction |
|-------|------------|
| "may" (expresses uncertainty) | "will" (the synchronization is an automatic, certain function) |
Explanation
In a smart watch manual, instructions/features must be stated with certainty. "May" implies possibility/doubt, which is incorrect for a definite automatic function. "Will" conveys certainty. Examiners expect you to identify the modal verb error and give the precise correction.
