Question
The meeting has been postponed and will be rescheduled
at a later date. Select the option that will improve the bold part of the given sentence. In case no improvement is needed, select 'No improvement required'.Solution
The sentence "The meeting has been postponed and will be rescheduled at a later date." is already grammatically correct. The phrase "at a later date" is appropriately used to indicate that the rescheduling will occur in the future but at an unspecified time. "will rescheduled at a later date": This option is grammatically incorrect because "will" should be followed by "be rescheduled" to form the future passive voice. "will be rescheduled on a later date": The phrase "on a later date" is less commonly used in this context. "At a later date" is the more standard and appropriate phrase. "would be rescheduled at a later date": The use of "would" changes the meaning to a conditional mood, which is not necessary here. The original sentence is stating a definite future action.
