Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.
My brother goes for swimming every day _________ summer.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. during.
Context: The sentence is about the time period when the brother swims. The blank must show that the activity happens in the period of summer.
Meaning of the words:
-
At = used for a specific point of time (not correct for a whole season).
-
During = shows something happening within a time period (correct here).
-
For = shows duration but doesn’t fit naturally with “summer” in this context.
-
Thoroughly = means completely (not related to time).
Correct word: The correct word is during.
Reason: We say “during summer” to indicate that something happens in that season.
Final Sentence: “My brother goes for swimming every day during summer.”
Hence, the chosen option will be correct.
