Suggested: Upcoming government exams
Correct Answer: (2)
Solution : The sentence can be improved using the second option.
The original sentence "There was a large various of clothes in the store" contains an incorrect use of the adjective various . In this context, "various" is not the appropriate adjective to describe the selection of clothes. One should use variety to convey the idea of a diverse range of clothes available in the store.
Humorous means funny, which is inappropriate in this context.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "There was a large variety of clothes in the store."
