Correct Answer: (3)


Solution : The correct choice is the third option .

The correct phrase is "strong wind", which means a wind that is powerful, forceful, or intense whereas "breeze" is a light wind so it is incorrect to use the term "breeze".

Therefore, the correct sentence is: " The strong wind blew his hat away."
