Back to paper

Select the most appropriate option that can substitute the underlined segment in the given sentence.

Rajan is having three brothers and three sisters.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Rajan has.

The underlined segment in the given sentence is "is having."

  • "Has" can substitute the underlined segment and convey the same meaning. "Rajan has three brothers and three sisters."
  • "is possessing" doesn't fit the context and doesn't convey the intended meaning.
  • "Had" suggests past tense and doesn't fit the context.
  • "Have" is not appropriate as the subject is singular, "Rajan," and not plural.

Therefore, the correct sentence is:

Rajan has three brothers and three sisters.
