    Solution

    (I) IncorrectThere is a subject-verb disagreement and article mismatch.

    "There was a significant drop..." (not "were") — 'drop' is singular.Corrected: The data suggests that there was a significant drop...

    (II) CorrectThis sentence is both grammatically correct and contextually meaningful.It correctly uses "aims to become" + "a global hub" and has no structural errors.

    (III) IncorrectThe correct construction after "No sooner" is "had + subject + past participle".
    Corrected: No sooner had the meeting begun than the fire alarm went off.
