Complete the sentences given in List-I with the appropriate prepositions from List-II:
| List-I | List-II |
|---|---|
| (Sentences) | (Prepositions) |
| (A) The case was put ______ the judge. | (I) across |
| (B) She is suffering ______ fever. | (II) before |
| (C) A jeep hit him while he was going ______ the main road. | (III) among |
| (D) He is not popular ______ the students. | (IV) from |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Solution
Option 1 -> (A)-(I) "put across" means to communicate, not present to a judge; incorrect matching.
Option 2 -> (A)-(II) "put before", (B)-(IV) "suffering from", (C)-(I) "going across", (D)-(III) "popular among" - all are correct idiomatic expressions.
Option 3 -> (A)-(III) "put among" is grammatically incorrect; (B)-(II) "suffering before" doesn't make sense.
Option 4 -> (A)-(IV) "put from" is incorrect; (B)-(III) "suffering among" is not idiomatic.
Hence, Option 2 -> "Put before" means to present for consideration, "suffer from" indicates experiencing illness, "going across" means crossing, and "popular among" refers to being liked by a group - all correct prepositional usages -> correct
