Correct Answer: 3
Solution : The correct improvement for the sentence is: a European lady who works for an NGO, at the conference.
Explanation: This option is the correct improvement because it adds the indefinite article "a" before "European lady," making the sentence grammatically correct. It also includes a comma after "NGO" to set off the non-restrictive clause "who works for an NGO." It clearly conveys that the individual met a specific European lady who has a connection to an NGO at the conference.
European lady who works for an NGO at the conference
- This option suggests reordering the sentence to place the descriptive phrase "who works for an NGO" after "European lady." While this improves the sentence's structure, it still lacks the indefinite article "a" before "European lady."
an European lady at the conference who works for an NGO
- This option introduces an unnecessary indefinite article "an" before "European lady," which is not needed in this context. It also changes the word order in a way that makes the sentence less clear
