Question

___6___ the rulers was a brave woman, the Rani of Jhansi.

• A. Of
• B. Between
• C. Among
• D. For

Answer 1

The correct option is C Among

The given sentence talks about a large number of people who are not distinct and are viewed as a group. Therefore 'among' is the suitable answer. Since 'among' is generally used while speaking about the group of people who are not distinct. Thus option C is correct. On the other hand 'between' is used to speak about the group of people who are distinct. Hence option B is incorrect. The preposition 'for' indicates the use of something , a reason or purpose while 'of' is used to signify a connection or belonging. Since the sentence speaks about the group of people who are not distinct 'of' and 'for' are not suitable for the given sentence. Thus option A and D are incorrect.

The completed sentence thus, becomes: Among the rulers was a brave woman, the Rani of Jhansi.
