Correct Answer: 3
Solution : The correct choice is the third option .
Explanation : The correct verb form should be "who had come to hear him" to maintain past tense consistency. We use the past perfect tense "had" to depict that the event occurred earlier than the others in the past. In this context, the people had already come to hear Ravi Shankar's performance before the standing ovation occurred.
Therefore, the correct sentence would be: "Ravi Shankar's performance was given a standing ovation by the people who had come to hear him."
