Correct Answer: Neither of the boys wanted to go to the party, but he went anyway.
Solution : The correct answer is option 3.
Explanation:
"Neither of the boys wanted to go to the party, but he went anyway" is incorrect because "neither" means "not either" and refers to two things, so the pronoun "he" is incorrect.
