Correct Answer: looked


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

The phrase "looked after" means to be cared for or attended to. In this context, it emphasises the idea that guests are always taken care of and attended to by the members of the family, even if there might be scarcity or lack of food for the family itself.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: "Even though we don't have anything to eat, the guests are never left hungry and are always looked after by the members of the family."
