Hint: We follow the Subject- Verb- Object (SVO) structure while forming a sentence. We can also place an adverb before or after the subject to indicate the position or to modify the action performed by the subject.

Complete answer:
 As given in the hint, we use adverbs to modify verbs.
In the given question- ‘She’ is the subject, ‘turned and saw’ is the verb and ‘someone had been following her’ is the object. We need to follow the Subject + Verb + Object conjugation to form a grammatically correct sentence.
Let’s look at the given options-
Option a- ‘No change’ is incorrect, because the given sentence does not match the criteria of Subject+ Verb + Object conjugation.
Option b- ‘She suddenly turned and saw that someone had been following her’ is the correct option, because we can see the proper implementation of the SVO form.
Option c- ‘Suddenly turned she and saw that someone had been following her’ is an incorrect option, because it does not follow the SVO format.
Option d- ‘She someone had been following her saw suddenly turned that’ is an incorrect option as it is grammatically incorrect.
So, the correct answer is “Option b”.

Note:
 Keep in mind, we never place an adverb or an adverbial phrase between a verb and its object. We have placed the adverb between the subject and the verb because the adverb is used to lay emphasis on the verb.
