In this section each of the following sentences has a blank space and each sentence is followed by four options. Select the most appropriate option to fill the blank space.
Davis is not sure whether he should ________ the forest guest house after dark.
- Astay
- Bleave
- Cleft
- Dleaves
Explanation
The sentence is 'he should ________ the forest guest house after dark'. After the modal 'should', the base form of the verb is required. Option (b) 'leave' is the base form. Option (a) 'stay' is also base form, but contextually, being unsure about staying after dark suggests leaving is the concern. Actually, both are grammatical; but 'leave' fits the context of doubt about staying in a forest guest house after dark (safety concern). Options (c) 'left' and (d) 'leaves' are not base forms. Hence option B is correct. Cross-checked with Oswaal CDS Yearwise Solved Papers.
