Question
In the following question, a sentence is given with a
highlighted phrase, and it is followed by three options (I), (II), and (III) which can replace the emboldened phrase to make it grammatically and meaningfully correct. Choose the best option among the five given alternatives that reflect the correct phrase to be used in the sentence. If the sentence is correct as it is, mark 'No replacement required', as the answer Parkinson's patients undergo deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery with the hope of aggravating tremor and other symptoms. i. Of ameliorating ii. In alleviating iii. Of intensifyingSolution
(c) The sentence talks about Parkinson's patients undergoing surgery with certain hope. Now we must understand that undergoing the surgery must relieve them of tremors and other symptoms associated with the disease. The emboldened phrase and iii), on the other hand, give out an absolutely opposite meaning to the one that is intended. ii) uses incorrect preposition 'in' which renders the sentence meaningless. Having a hope 'of' something and having a hope 'in' something are two different things. i) is grammatically correct and bring out a meaningfully correct sentence. Hence, c) is the correct answer.
