Question
In the question below, a sentence is given which has a
blank, meaning something has been omitted. From the options below, choose the correct combination of phrases that can fit in the blank to make the sentence grammatically and meaningfully correct. The growth in tourist numbers continued into the age of the motor car, when railways ____________. 1. Began to be closed down 2. Began to fall out of use 3. Begun to become obsoleteSolution
The sentence tells us how railways were no longer used much in the age of the motor car. Both 1 and 2 will fit here to convey the requisite meaning. Thus, (b) is the right answer. 3 is incorrect as it uses the past participle form of the verb BEGUN in place of the second form verb BEGAN, as the former will be preceded by the helping verb HAD.
