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

Bill Gates’ fortune was bequeathed for the old age home.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. to the old age home.

  • "For" suggests purpose or benefit, but it doesn't directly specify who is receiving it.
  • "To" specifies the actual recipient or beneficiary. Here, it means that the old age home is the entity receiving the fortune.

Hence, the correct sentence is:- "Bill Gates' fortune was bequeathed to the old age home."
