1- Students who does not work hard cannot pass the exam.
2 - Students who do not work hard cannot pass the exam.

and

3 - Students not working hard cannot pass his exam.
4 - Students not working hard cannot pass their exams.
1 and 3 are not correct.

2 is correct.

4 is correct. It can also be written without the "s" in "exams".

You're welcome, Satara.

If your grammar book selected the other choices, burn it.
