Correct Answer: 3


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

The phrase nor I did is grammatically inaccurate and should be replaced with nor did I. To maintain proper subject-auxiliary inversion in the negative statement, the auxiliary verb did should be placed before the subject I .

Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "She did not like the phone, nor did I. "
