Correct Answer: (3)
Solution : The error lies in the third part of the sentence.
We use "prefer" to say we like one thing or activity more than another, and it can be used as a prepositional phrase with "to" when we compare two things or actions, which in this case are, reading books and visiting my friends.
Therefore, the correct sentence is, "On a holiday, I prefer reading books to visiting my friends."
