Question : Direction: In the question, a part of the sentence is in bold. Below are given alternatives to the bold part at (1), (2), and (3) that may improve the sentence. Choose the correct alternative. In case no improvement is needed, your answer is (4).
The Chief Minister has promised to commit his department to a renewed effort to clean up the environment.
(1) administration
(2) departmental
(3) workers
(4) No Improvement
Option 1: (1)
Option 2: (2)
Option 3: (3)
Option 4: (4)
Correct Answer: (1)
Solution : The sentence can be improved using the first option "administration".
"Administration" is appropriate, as it refers to the broader administrative and executive body and also the process of running the organisation.
The meanings of the other options are as follows:
- Departmental : While "departmental" is related to departments, it doesn't replace " department " in a way that improves the sentence.
- Workers : It changes the meaning, suggesting that the Chief Minister is promising the workers rather than the government department.
Therefore, the correct sentence is "The Chief Minister has promised to commit his administration to a renewed effort to clean up the environment".
