    In each of the following questions, a statement is given

    with a single blank. Choose the most suitable option which fits the blank in the most meaningful and appropriate way. The cyclone caused widespread damage, forcing thousands of people to _____________ their homes and seek shelter elsewhere.
    A decorate Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B observe Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C abandon Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D expand Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E retain Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The correct sentence is:"The cyclone caused widespread damage, forcing thousands of people to abandon their homes and seek shelter elsewhere."
    Abandon means to leave something behind, especially due to danger or necessity, which fits the context of a natural disaster.
    Other options don’t fit the sentence contextually:
    Decorate and expand are unrelated to disaster.
    Observe and retain don’t convey the necessary action of fleeing or leaving.
