Correct Answer: 1


Solution : The first option is appropriate because in this sentence, 'deals with' should be replaced with ' deals in' .

Deals in' means 'buying and selling of goods as a business' and 'deals with' means 'to talk to someone in an effective way. Hence, in the sentence, the subject is involved in buying and selling things and doing business.

Therefore, the correct sentence should be "My elder son deals in spare parts and manages  his bread and butter."
