Back to paper

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank. 

Someone has __________ my pocket in the bus, and I have no money now.
 

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. picked.

  • In this sentence the action that has taken place in the past.

  • The action involves someone taking something from pocket without consent. 

  • The sentence is in the past tense because it describes an event that has already happened. 

  •  The word "picked" in this context implies that someone has skillfully and stealthily taken something from pocket. It fits well with the idea that this action was done without knowledge or permission.

So, the word "picked" is the most suitable filler in the sentence to accurately convey the intended meaning and maintain grammatical correctness.
