EnglishFill in the Blanks
- Asaid
- Btold
- Cthought of
- Dasked
Explanation
The clause 'whether he could get any certificate' is an indirect question, which must follow the verb 'asked'. 'Said' and 'told' take 'that'-clauses or personal objects ('told me that...'), and 'thought of' cannot introduce a whether-clause. Hence (D) asked is correct.
