Correct Answer: 1
Solution : The first option is the correct choice.
Explanation : In the sentence, we have used "one" as an indefinite pronoun. Further in the sentence, we have also used "they", a third-person plural pronoun, to talk about the same person. This is erroneous, and "they" must be replaced with "one".
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "When one takes great risks, one must be prepared for great losses."
