SSC CHSL - 05 July 2024 - Shift 2 • English • Q25

Select the option that corrects the following sentence.

All tickets of the FIFA World Cup have been sold away.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. All tickets of the FIFA World Cup have been sold out.

"Sold away" is the incorrect phrasal verb, the correct phrasal verb is "Sold out".

"Sold out" is the correct phrasal verb for indicating complete sale of items.

It means that all tickets are gone, and none are available for purchase.

Meaning of the other words:

Sold into: "sell into" is not used in this context.
Sold across: "sell across" means selling in multiple locations, but does not indicate exhaustion of stock.
Sold among: "sell among" does not convey the intended meaning.

Hence, the chosen option is correct.
