Question : Directions: Improve the bracketed part of each sentence.
The police (broke away) the concert as it turned violent.
(1) broke through
(2) broke up
(3) broke off
(4) No Improvement
Option 1: 1
Option 2: 2
Option 3: 3
Option 4: 4
Correct Answer: 2
Solution : The correct choice is the second option.
Explanation : The phrasal verb broke away which means to escape, should be replaced with broke up which means to disperse a gathering, to convey the intended meaning in this context. There is an error in the use of the appropriate preposition in the sentence.
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "The police broke up the concert as it turned violent."
