    Solution

    In statement I, the use of the word brisk is correct as it qualifies the noun worker. In statement II, the use of the word brisk is correct as it is used as a verb which means to quicken something. In statement III, the use of the word brisk is incorrect because it is an adjective, but an adverb is required to qualify the verb walking. Instead, the adverb briskly is to be used. The correct sentence is: Despite walking briskly, I missed the train. Hence, (b) is the correct answer.
