SSC CHSL - 30 May 2022 - Shift 3 • English • Q23

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.

Rohan is _______ self-sufficient man who needs no assistance.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. a.

  • The word "a" is used as an indefinite article before the noun "self-sufficient" in the sentence.
  • The use of the indefinite article is necessary to introduce a singular countable noun (self-sufficient man) that is not specific or previously mentioned.
  • By adding "a" before "self-sufficient," the sentence becomes grammatically correct, providing the intended meaning that Rohan is a man who is self-sufficient and requires no assistance.

Thus, the completed sentence would be: Rohan is a self-sufficient man who needs no assistance.
