Improve the bracketed part of the sentence.

50 Chinese couples were married at a ceremony in Colombo to mark the anniversary of (diplomat relations between the two countries).

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Diplomatic relations between the two countries.

  • We need to use 'diplomatic' in place of 'diplomat' since 'relations' is a noun. And a noun takes an adjective before it. 'Diplomat' is itself a noun and used for a person.
  • 'Between' is already correct because 'between' is used for two things/persons while 'among' is used for more than two.

The correct sentence will be-

50 Chinese couples were married at a ceremony in Colombo to mark the anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two countries.
