Correct Answer: (3)
Solution : The sentence can be improved using the third alternative .
"Under" is the correct preposition, which is to be used in place of "on" to correctly fit into the context of the sentence and convey its intended meaning i.e., she sat under the tree, meaning below the tree to protect herself from rain.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: She sat under the tree to protect herself from the rain.
