Correct Answer: 1


Solution : The correct choice is the first option .

Explanation : The phrase a period for should be replaced with a period of to convey a period. The period of imprisonment conveys the idea that she renounced terrorism after being imprisoned for a certain amount of time.

The other options are grammatically inaccurate and, hence, incorrect.

Therefore, the correct sentence would be: "After a period of imprisonment, she renounced terrorism."
