Question
In each of the following questions, a part of the
sentence has been highlighted. You need to identify which of the given options can replace the highlighted part and make the sentence grammatically and contextually correct. In case the highlighted part is correct, mark option E as your answer. We were all annoyed with him over not helping with the hay, and I thought for good measure.Solution
‘Good riddance ' is an expression of 'pleasure on being rid of some annoyance' which fits rightly in the context of the sentence as the subject was happy to part ways with someone. It should replace the incorrectly used phrase ' for good measure ' which means 'in addition to what has already been done or said'. ' Good Samaritan ' means 'Someone who helps another person in need with no thought of reward', ' as good as gold ' means 'well-behaved and obedient' and ' good egg ' means 'a person who is good to other people'. These do not make sense in the context of the sentence. Option b) is the correct answer.
