(d) The word 'imminent' has been correctly used (as an adjective) in statement III, where it means 'coming or likely to happen very soon'. However, the usage of the word 'imminent' in statement I is incorrect as it renders the sentence meaningless; the correct word to be used in the sentence is 'eminent', which means '(of a person) famous and respected within a particular sphere'. Similarly, the usage of the word 'imminent' in statement II is incorrect as it renders the sentence meaningless; the correct word to be used in the sentence is 'eminent', which means 'noticeable or worth remarking on, or very great'. Hence, option (d) is the correct answer.
