Option 1 : These documents

The correct answer is option 1) i.e. These documents

  • The underlined part is incorrect because of the use of the singular determiner 'this' with the plural countable noun 'documents'.
  • 'A' generalizes the type of documents mentioned, while 'those' imply that distance. 
  • Thus, 'these' is the best fit determiner to precede 'documents'. 
  • Option 1 rectifies the error of the given phrase and makes the sentence grammatically and contextually correct.
     
Correct sentence- "These documents, products themselves of civilization, try to provide legal protections for the most elemental features of civilization."
