Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.
The lack of regular academic sessions has meant that in 2020 the country has had the
______ share of students who have attended educational institutions.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. lowest.
- The most appropriate word for the given blank is 'lowest'.
- We use a superlative to say that a thing or person is the most of a group.
- When we use a superlative adjective ('the tallest student') before the noun, we generally use it with 'the'. This is because there's only one (or one group) of the thing we are talking about.
Hence, the correct answer is Option 2 i.e. lowest.
