Correct Answer: (1)
Solution : The correct answer is the first option.
The original sentence is grammatically correct but can be improved for better clarity. The phrase with all his wealth provides a more clear and precise indication of the relationship between his wealth and his lack of joy in life. It suggests that his wealth is present alongside his lack of joy, which is the intended meaning.
Therefore, the correct sentence would be: With all his wealth, he has no joy in life.
