Question

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank:

I've put off _______ the letter so many times. I really must do it today.

• A. working
• B. washing
• C. writing
• D. making

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

The correct answer is the action that best fits with 'the letter'.

Option A is incorrect. Working does not fit with 'the letter' as 'working the letter' makes no sense.

Option B is incorrect. Washing is also not an action that fits with a letter. Thus, it is incorrect.

Option C is correct. Writing is the best action to fit in with a letter. 'Writing the letter' makes perfect sense and thus, it is the correct option.

Option D is incorrect. Making does not fit well with 'the letter'. As letters are written and not made.
