Question
The booking was made and the taxi was _______ a few
minutes. In the following question, the sentence given with blank to be filled in with an appropriate word. Select the correct alternative out of the four and indicate it by selecting the appropriate option.Solution
Explanation : Since ‘was’ is the helping verb here, main verb cannot be in its original form, hence, option 1 is not correct. Option 2 is also not making any sense as ‘at a few minutes’ is not correct. For option 3, grammatically, ‘was arriving’ is correct but again ‘arriving a few minutes’ doesn’t make any sense. Hence, option 4 is correct.
