Back to paper

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

This is best book for children to read.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. This is the best book.

  • "This is the best book" is grammatically correct.
  •  It appropriately employs the definite article "the" to express that it is the best book among others.
  • Compared to other options;
    • "This is good book": The sentence "This is good book" is grammatically wrong because it misuses the comparative form and does not use the definite article "the".
    • "This is a very good book": The statement "This is a very good book" lacks the definite article "the" and fails to accurately express the exceptional quality.
    • "This is very best book": It is grammatically wrong since "the best" is the right word to use when combining "very" with "best."
