SSC CHSL - 05 July 2024 - Shift 1 • English • Q14

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.

She went on a shopping spree with her friend and made him _______ the fat bill.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. pay.

"Pay" means to give money in exchange for goods or services.

In this context, "pay the bill" means to settle a financial obligation.

Meaning of the other words:

Paid: Past tense of "pay," which does not fit grammatically.
Do: Does not make sense in this context.
Give: Incorrect because we "pay" a bill, not "give" it.

Hence, the chosen option is correct.
