EnglishFill in the Blanks
- Asailing
- Bembarking
- Cadventuring
- Dconcurring
Explanation
The phrasal verb ‘embark on/upon’ means to begin or undertake something new, especially an ambitious venture — ‘embarking on the ambitious project’. ‘Sailing on’ and ‘adventuring on’ do not take this prepositional construction, and ‘concurring’ means agreeing, which makes no sense here. Therefore ‘embarking’ is correct.
