Question : Directions: In the following question, a sentence is given with a blank that is to be filled in with an appropriate word. Four alternatives are suggested; choose the correct alternative out of them as your answer.
He stood _______ Ankita, but could not utter a single word for quite some time.
Option 1: to
Option 2: for
Option 3: before
Option 4: towards
Correct Answer: before
Solution : The third option is the correct choice.
- Stood before refers to the act of standing while facing someone, which fits perfectly in the sentence.
- The option stood for means to support a cause, which is inappropriate in the context of the sentence. The options stood to and stood towards are wrong.
Therefore, the complete sentence is: "He stood before Ankita but could not utter a single word for quite some time."
