Correct Answer: (2)
Solution : The correct choice to improve the sentence is the second option.
Explanation: This option corrects the verb tense and structure in the sentence. It uses "would have" to indicate a past unreal condition, which matches the use of "if I had requested him to do so" as per the third conditional. This construction is grammatically accurate and conveys the intended meaning that assistance would have been provided if the request had been made.
Therefore, the correct sentence should be, " He would have surely assisted me if I had requested him to do so ".
