Question

Although he is liable to make political enemies with the decision, the Finance Minister will propose severe tax cuts that may both stimulate business and reduce the availability of loans.

• A. Liable from
• B. Able to
• C. Of a mind to
• D. No change

Answer 1

The correct option is D No change

Let’s examine the sentence: “Although he is liable to make political enemies with the decision, the Finance Minister will propose severe tax cuts that may both stimulate business and reduce the availability of loans.” The phrase ‘liable to’ means, it is an event that will happen. This is the only phrase which would fit in with the sense of the rest of the sentence. So there will be no change. So the best alternative for the underlined part of the sentence is Option D, which is the correct answer.
