The sentences are followed by options that indicate the words, which may be selected to correctly complete the set of sentences. From the options given, choose the most appropriate one.Solution
“Between” is used for two persons and “Among” for more than two persons. “A number of” is plural but “the number of” is singular. “one's cup of tea” means “of one's choice or preference”. “one's cup of coffee” is a meaningless expression.
