It indicates that the work has been ongoing for a significant period, which is consistent with the speaker's narrative.

Explanation: This option is incorrect because it does not align with the context of the text. The phrase 'work to be done in end' is vague and does not logically connect to the discussion about the electoral system and the challenges faced by the Green Party. The text emphasizes ongoing efforts rather than a conclusion or an endpoint.

Option 2: "same preference for the work"

Explanation: This option is incorrect as it introduces an idea of preference that is not supported by the text. The discussion focuses on the challenges and efforts related to the electoral system, rather than preferences. The phrase 'same preference for the work' does not fit the context of the ongoing challenges mentioned.

Option 4: "presently to be done again"

Explanation: This option is incorrect because it suggests a repetitive action that is not supported by the text. The phrase 'presently to be done again' implies that the work has already been completed and is now being repeated, which contradicts the speaker's emphasis on the ongoing challenges and the need for continued efforts in the electoral system.
