The sentences that correct the vague pronoun problem are:

The police officer chased the criminal through the streets until the officer tripped and fell.

The police officer chased the criminal through the streets until the criminal tripped and fell.

Explanation:

In the original sentence, "The police officer chased the criminal through the streets until he tripped and fell", we have the following information:

- There was a police officer;

- There was a criminal;

- The officer chased the criminal;

- One of them tripped and fell.

Because the speaker of the sentence used the pronoun "he" when there are two possible  third-person singular nouns for it to be substituting - officer and criminal -, "he" ends up being vague. We do not know who it refers to.

Thus, the best way to correct this problem is by choosing one of the nouns to be the one who tripped and fell, and using it instead of the pronoun "he".

as we know, the english language is spoken all over the world by native and non-native speakers and has become the most certain tool when it comes to communicating. businesses, schools, even romantic relationships depend on it to keep thriving. in addition, it is the language of the internet not only because most of the content available is in english, but also because people prefer to use it when talking to others, since it's the language everyone supposedly learns.

yet, there have been some current claims that chinese will soon take over as the most important language in the world. china's magnitude has never been more evident and doing business with the chinese is a gold mine for any country. we now see language schools offering chinese courses as commonly as english.

however - even though we cannot deny china's importance and the advantage it is when someone takes the time to learn the language their business contact speaks-, people in general seem to be ignoring the aspects that seem to keep english as the chosen one of languages. one of them has been mentioned above: it is the language of the internet. also, chinese people are still learning english, since it opens doors in communicating with practically everyone else, from every single country.
