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.
Kalpana has no paper to write _____.
Option 1: Upon
Option 2: Over
Option 3: At
Option 4: Off
Correct Answer: Upon
Solution : The correct choice is the first option "upon".
The preposition "upon" is the appropriate choice to fill the blank with, as "write upon'' fits perfectly in the sentence, which helps convey the intended meaning that Kalpana doesn't have any paper on which to write.
The meanings of the other options are as follows:
- Over: ''Write over'' means to write something again on top of what has already been written.
- Off: ''Write off'' means to dismiss or consider something as not important.
- "At" is not used after ''write'' and hence is incorrect.
Therefore, the complete sentence is "Kalpana has no paper to write upon ".
