Explanation:

"Six" is a plural number, thus, 'years' should be in plural as the preposition "of" is used after it. In contrast, in compound nouns, the singular forms are used. E.G. I saw a ten year old boy steal from the shop.

Additionally, in the highlighted part, the phrase "in qualitatively" is incorrect as "qualitatively" is an adverb. To make the sentence correct, the noun "quality" should be used. Since (i) makes both the corrections,

option 1 is the correct answer.
