Question
In each question below, a sentence is given with a word
printed in bold type, which may be correct or erroneous. Each sentence is followed by four words. Find out which is the correct word that should replace the error in bold, if there is any, and which makes the sentence grammatically meaningful and correct. If the sentence is correct as it is and ‘No improvement required’, mark option 5 ‘No improvement required’ as the answer. Back in the days when tennis’ Davis Cup was played extensively on the home-and-away format right until the final, it was one of sport’s grander spectacles.Solution
The word "extensively" in the sentence is used incorrectly. The sentence should describe the format of the Davis Cup, not the extent of its play. The correct word to use here is "exclusively," which means the Davis Cup was played only in a home-and-away format.
