    alternatives given below each sentence. The students refused _____ the hostel. 
    A leaving Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B to leave Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    When the verb "refused" is followed by another action, it is typically followed by the infinitive form of the verb (to + base form of the verb). In this case, the infinitive form "to leave" is correct.   Therefore, the completed sentence is: "The students refused to leave the hostel." This indicates that the students declined or were unwilling to depart from the hostel.
