Question
Which of the following phrases (I), (II), and (III)
given below each sentence should replace the phrase printed in bold letters to make the sentence grammatically correct? Choose the best option among the five given alternatives that reflect the correct use of phrase in the context of the grammatically correct sentence. If the sentence is correct as it is, mark (e) i.e., 'No correction required'; as the answer. Admissions officers, who once accepted nearly all comers with a "C average" in high school, boast that they turn around as many applicants as they take. 1. turn out 2. shut off 3. turn downSolution
