Improve the bracketed part of the sentence.
The Chairman (send in) all the right signals and we can only hope that his trip will result in rich dividends.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Sent out.
- We need to replace 'send' with 'sent'.
- 'Chairman' is a singular subject and hence it will take the singular verb in the present tense.
- In the past tense, all subjects take V2 only.
- So, 'chairman' will take either 'sends' or 'sent'.
- 'Send out' means 'to cause (a signal) to go out'.
The correct sentence will be-
The Chairman sent out all the right signals and we can only hope that his trip will result in rich dividends.
