    Solution

    The given sentence talks about a piece of advice that if you start work on a project, you must do it gracefully. 'Start' means to begin and 'finish' means to end. The usage of the two words conveys that once you initiate working on a project, then you must complete it gracefully. Hence, (b) is the correct answer. II and III are not pairs of opposite words and don't fall in line with the given context. The correct sentence is: Once you start working on a project, you must finish it gracefully.
