Question : Select the option that will improve the underlined part of the given sentence.
The use of chemicals, insecticides and pesticides began after the Green Revolution.
Option 1: A practice of chemicals, insecticides and pesticides
Option 2: The custom of chemicals, insecticides and pesticides
Option 3: Consumption of chemicals, insecticides and pesticides
Option 4: The usage of chemicals, insecticides and pesticides
Correct Answer: The usage of chemicals, insecticides and pesticides
Solution : The fourth option is the correct choice.
The change from "use" to "usage" is a subtle improvement, making the sentence more formal and grammatically accurate. Usage is a noun, while use can function as both a verb and a noun.
Therefore, the correct sentence would be: The usage of chemicals, insecticides, and pesticides began after the Green Revolution.
