Question

Select a suitable option to complete the sentence:
We made the room look nicer by _____ some posters up on the walls.

• A. posting
• B. putting
• C. applying
• D. meeting

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Option A is an assembly of people for a particular purpose.It does not have any relevance in the sentence and hence is an incorrect option.

Option B; posting in simple terms means to publish or display in a public place and hence its meaning is not the appropriate word to use in the sentence.This option is incorrect.

Option C;Putting is to place in a particular position and is the right word to use in this particular sentence as it is speaking of positioning some posters up on the wall. This is the correct option.

Option D;Applying is to make a formal application or request and holds no real relevance in this particular sentence and hence this is an incorrect option.
