He said that he thought off politics right when he was studying Intermediate and that he had no fear of politics.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1, i.e. He said that he thought off politics right when.

  • 'Off' means apart or away from something. However, the given sentence talks about a topic 'politics'. So, using the word 'off' over here is grammatically incorrect. The accurate form would be 'thought of politics'.
