Question

Crowds began to hound to hear his speeches.
i.            Began to muster
ii.            Began to gather
iii.            Began to flock

Q: Answer-Crowds began to hound to hear his speeches. i. Began to muster ii. ...

Hound means to pursue something but the sentence does not make a sense with it. Hence it needs to be replaced with a word which means collect or come together. Muster, gather and flock mean the same.

Below are given a few sentences with one part emboldened in each. The emboldened part may or may not be grammatically correct. Below each question are five options out of which any in four options may replace the emboldened part. If the sentence does not require any improvement, choose option 5, ‘No improvement required’.

A Only ii

B Both i and ii

C Both ii and iii

D i, ii and iii

E No improvement required
