Question
The central bank has done the heavy lift in the last few
months and monetary policy may well be nearing its limits in so far as its ability to influence growth prospects is concerned. In the following sentence given below, four words have been printed in bold which are numbered (1), (2), (3) and (4). One of these words may be misspelt or inappropriate in the context of the sentence. Find out the wrongly spelt or inappropriate word. The number of that word is the answer. If all the words are correctly spelt and are appropriate, then, the answer is (5), i.e., ‘All are correct’.Solution
The correct phrase should be "heavy lifting" rather than "heavy lift" in this context. "Heavy lifting" refers to performing the difficult or labor-intensive work, while "lift" alone does not convey the intended meaning here. Thus, option (3) is incorrect.
