SSC Selection Post 2025 PYQ — Question 75

SSC Selection Post - Matriculation Level - 30th July 2025 - Shift 1 • English • Q75

Fill in the correct collocation in the following sentence.

I wish to _____ my own cafe one day.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Correct Answer

have (Option 3)

Explanation

"Have" is the correct verb because "to have a cafe/business" is a standard English collocation that means to own or possess it.

"Wish to" must be followed by a base-form verb ($\text{V}_1$), which rules out the past-tense "made".

"Make" or "do" do not collocate with "cafe" in the context of ownership. You can make coffee, but you have or run a cafe.
