Question : Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.
All it takes is one resolution to stop _______ you want to stop it.
Option 1: provided
Option 2: so that
Option 3: although
Option 4: even if
Correct Answer:
provided
Solution : The correct answer is option 1.
Explanation
- Provided denotes assuming something occurs.
- The conjunction "so that" is used to connect two clauses. "So that" is used before the clause that denotes the purpose (one of them expresses an action, the other expresses the purpose).
- To begin reason and explanation clauses, we use the conjunction "so + that."
Although is done to demonstrate how one fact makes another fact surprising or to connect two opposing ideas.
Even if is a phrase we use to describe hypothetical situations.
- We employ it when speculating or when we do not take something to be true.
- As a result, the right answer is "provided."
