Question

    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.

    The booking was made and the taxi was _______ a few

    minutes.
    A arrive for Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B for arrive at Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C arriving Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D to arrive in Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    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.
