Suggested: Upcoming government exams
Correct Answer: make him clear
Solution : The error lies in the second option.
Explanation:
In this context,
"it" is used as a placeholder for the situation or message the speaker wants to make clear. The use of the adjective "clear" is appropriate after "make" to indicate the desired state of understanding.
Therefore, the correct sentence would be: "He spoke slowly in order to make it clear. "
