- Dsuggest
Explanation
'Recommend' here means to put forward as suitable, so 'suggest' matches: the committee should put his name forward for consideration. 'Praise' means express admiration, 'advise' means give counsel, and 'counsel' means give guidance; none means proposing a name. Hence (d) is correct.
