ANSWER: 1
She is my cousin sister is the mistake.
Correct form of sentence: She is my cousin who works as an Engineer.
Cousin sister is a slang usage. The word 'cousin' is a gender-neutral noun.
'She is my cousin sister' itself tells that one is talking about a female cousin. Hence, there is no need to add the word brother/sister after having said the cousin.
