Correct Answer: has been increasing noticeably


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

The adverb noticeable should be modified to its adverbial form noticeably to correctly describe how the number of children in secondary schools has been increasing.

Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "Since 1950, the number of children in secondary schools has been increasing noticeably. "
