Correct Answer: 3


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

The idiomatic expression "in such a mess" means to be surrounded by problems, and this should be followed by the connector "that" to introduce the reported clause.

Therefore, the correct statement should be: "The tea estate is in such a mess that there is no one to set things right."
