Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blanks.
Our ______ has so many magnificent tourist destinations, with unimaginable potential, yet to ____ fully explored.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. country; be.
Context: The sentence talks about a place with many tourist destinations that are not yet fully explored. We need words that fit both meaning and grammar.
Meaning of the words:
-
country – refers to a nation, suitable here.
-
state – can also mean a region, but “country” fits better with “tourist destinations”.
-
land – general term, less formal here.
-
national – adjective, cannot be used as a noun here.
-
be – correct form to indicate yet to be explored.
-
been – past participle, not suitable with “yet to”.
Correct word: country; be
Reason: The structure “yet to be explored” is grammatically correct. “Country” is the appropriate noun for a nation with tourist spots. Other options either make the sentence grammatically incorrect or awkward.
Final Sentence: Our country has so many magnificent tourist destinations, with unimaginable potential, yet to be fully explored.
Hence, the chosen option is correct.
