Correct Answer: (2)
Solution : The sentence can be improved using the second option, "soon after".
The original phrase, "No sooner after," is incorrect. When we want to indicate that an event occurred shortly after another event, we use the phrase " soon after ". "Soon after" is the correct choice as it replaces the incorrect phrase and provides the necessary improvement to the sentence.
Therefore, the correct sentence is, " Soon after she was jailed for her conviction on corruption charges, they began taking a keen interest in her".
