Correct Answer: 3


Solution : The sentence can be improved using the third option .

Revising means reviewing and preparing for an exam, making it the most suitable choice in this context.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Recollecting: It means to remember or recall something, and it doesn't convey the intended meaning of preparing for an examination.
  • Recapitulating: It means summarising or reviewing something, and it is not the appropriate word for someone preparing for a final examination.

Therefore, the correct sentence is, "She is revising hard for the final examination".
