Question : Directions: In the question, a part of the sentence is in bold. Below are given alternatives to the bold part at (1), (2), and (3) that may improve the sentence. Choose the correct alternative. In case no improvement is needed, your answer is (4).
Electricity has modernised the march of modern events.

(2) developed
(3) created
(4) No Improvement
Option 1: (1)
Option 2: (2)
Option 3: (3)
Option 4: (4)
Correct Answer: (1)
Solution : The sentence can be improved using the first option "revolutionised".
It effectively conveys that electricity has brought about significant and transformative changes in the course of modern events. "Revolutionised" indicates a major shift or change.
The meanings of the other options are as follows:
- Developed : It implies progress and growth but may not emphasise the magnitude of change as effectively as "revolutionised."
- Created : It is not a suitable fit in this context. While electricity has certainly played a role in creating modern events, the sentence is more about how it has transformed or revolutionised them.
Therefore, the correct sentence is "Electricity has revolutionised the march of modern events".
