Explanation:

In the sentence, the tense is incorrect. “Being” is not followed by “is”. And out of the options, both i and iii can make a correct sentence. Option ii is incorrect as ‘during’ talks about a phase of time while ‘in’ is used to locate a specific moment in time.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.
