    I'll believe that No.2 is right when I see an occupation walking down the street with a label on its front which reads: "I belong to John and I'm an insurance agent".

    OK. Please advise when you see it, but in the meantime I'll consider the #2 version acceptable.

    Hi, teachers. I am grateful to all your clarifications of the "answer", though a bit late. (Sorry, i have been away for a while.)
