هام قبل ان يقع طلابكم فى الخطأ

I noticed that a lot of my colleagues and some of the outside books answered this sentence in a wrong way. The sentence is copied from workbook test practice number 6.

Crashing into a garden, a tree was knocked down by a car.

Some answered it was knocked----------knocked and this was extremely wrong, others answered it by alternating a car with a tree and this is definitely wrong. However, the right answer would be like this as the subject of the participle clause must be the same the subject of the main verb as it was mentioned in the student book page 107. .

Crashing into a garden, a tree was knocked down by a car.

Crashing into a garden, a car knocked down a tree.

And there is another sentence which they answered incorrectly

Each year, the teacher puts a year's..........of paper in the classroom cupboard.

a. value b. useful c. worth d. view

The answer is worth not value
