Correct Answer: (2)


Solution : The correct choice is the second option .

The use of "at" is correct instead of "on" because "leapt at" is used to express eagerness and enthusiasm in seizing an opportunity, while "leapt on" is used to describe a more aggressive or critical response to a situation or idea.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: Mohan leapt at the opportunity that came his way.
