Question
In the following question, a word has been used in
sentences in THREE different ways. Choose the option corresponding to the sentences in which the usage of the word is CORRECT or APPROPRIATE. SHABBY I) Twelve dollars later I was let off at a shabby red brick building in a section of town where no tour busses stop. II) The few supplies she had would barely last the night, especially since the shabby was unusually heavy. III) She responded instinctively to the shabby in his voice.    ÂSolution
Sentence I is correct-"Shabby" refers to something in poor condition or dilapidated, which fits the description of a "shabby red brick building." Sentence II is incorrect-"Shabby" cannot be used to describe a thing that is heavy or supplies. The word typically describes things, conditions, or appearances, not weight or quantity. Sentence III is incorrect-"Shabby" refers to physical or visual wear or neglect, not something that can be sensed in a person's voice. A better word here might be "tone" or "quality."
