The correct answer is Option 3.
 
Key Points
  • The primary issue in the sentence is the incorrect use of the word "quite" in this context.
  • "Quite" is not used in this manner to describe the frequency of meetings.
  • The correct phrases should be "They hardly meet each other", "They often meet each other", or "They always meet each other".
  • Thus, the error is located in option 3 of the given sentences.
  • Therefore, the correct answer is Option 3.
 
Correct Sentence: "They quite meet each other." is not grammatically correct. Instead, you could say "They frequently meet each other."

  • Option 4: "They always meet each other." – This sentence is grammatically correct and does not require any changes.
