Question
In the following question, a word has been given and
there are three ways in which the word has been used, in similar or different forms. You need to see which of the sentence(s) has/have correctly used the given word and mark your answers accordingly. BREWED I. The world outside her was calm, but the storm within her brewed. II. I used to brewed these things on my walk. III. The smell indoors was the smell of freshly brewed coffee in the morning.Solution
The word 'brewed' has been correctly used (as a verb) in statement I, where it means 'the beginning of development of an unwelcome event or situation'. The word 'brewed' has also been used correctly in statement III, where it has been used an adjective (to modify the noun 'coffee') that means 'made (tea or coffee) either by boiling or mixing it with hot water'. However, the usage of 'brewed' in statement II is incorrect as it renders the sentence meaningless; it needs to be replaced with the verb 'brood', which means 'think deeply about something that makes one unhappy, angry, or worried'. Hence, option (a) is the correct answer.
