Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. No improvement required.
Error/Improvement Concept: This is a Sentence Improvement question testing correct usage of conjunctions and conditionals.
Grammatical Explanation:
The phrase "As long as" is used to mean "provided that" or "on the condition that," which fits well in this context. The sentence conveys that the speaker has no reason to worry provided that he completes his work on time.
Option Analysis:
No sooner than he – Incorrect usage; “no sooner” is used with the structure “No sooner had... than...” to describe two past events.
As soon as he – Changes the meaning; implies immediate action, not a condition.
Such that he – Grammatically awkward and doesn't fit the sentence context.
No improvement required – Correct; the sentence is already grammatically and contextually correct.
Final Sentence: As long as he completes his work on time, I have no cause for worry.
Conclusion: The correct answer is No improvement required.
