Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. enjoy.

The context from the above paragraph indicates that tourists come to Nainital's lake to engage in a recreational activity.

The word "enjoy" fits well in this context because tourists typically visit a lake for leisure activities such as boating.

"Enjoy" here means to take pleasure in or derive satisfaction from an activity, which accurately describes the reason tourists come to the lake.

Therefore, the sentence with the correct option would be: "Tourists come from far and wide to enjoy boating here."
