Option 3: "Return within ten days."

Explanation: This option is correct because the text clearly states that the maximum time limit for returning the book is ten days. This aligns perfectly with the information provided in the text.

Option 1: "Return before a week."

Explanation: This option is incorrect because the text specifies that the book must be returned within a week or a maximum of ten days. 'Before a week' implies a shorter time frame than allowed, which does not align with the information provided.

Option 2: "Return after a week."

Explanation: This option is incorrect as it contradicts the text. The text states that the book must be returned within a week or ten days, meaning returning after a week would incur a fine, which is not permissible.

Option 4: "Return after ten days."

Explanation: This option is incorrect because it suggests returning the book after ten days, which is not allowed according to the text. The text specifies that the book must be returned within ten days to avoid a fine.
