Choose the sentence that DOES NOT have the Article placed correctly:

Maya is the very smart person.

The correct answer is Option (3) - Maya is the very smart person.

The sentence that DOES NOT have the article placed correctly is:Maya is the very smart person.

• In this sentence, the phrase "the very smart person" is incorrect because it implies a specific person that the listener is already aware of. Instead, it should simply be "Maya is a very smart person," using the indefinite article "a" to refer to Maya as one of many smart people, rather than implying she is the only one.
