Question

Choose the most suitable option to fill in the blanks in the sentences below.

The project became so expensive that we had __________.

A pull through Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
B walk through Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C pull in Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
D pull out Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
E pull apart Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

Answer: d is correct. ‘Pull out’ here means to withdraw, disengage or retreat. ‘Pull in’ is unsuitable as it means to keep in check or park at a location. ‘Pull through’ refers to getting through a dangerous or difficult situation, and is unsuitable for use here. ‘Walk through’ means to guide someone through a process and cannot be used in this sentence. ‘Pull apart’ means to separate by force and is out of context in this sentence.
