Question

Choose the option that best fills in the blank:
I have seen action movies such _______ Fight Club and Seven Samurai.

• A. that
• B. as
• C. if
• D. or

Answer 1

The correct option is B as

The given sentence is about a person's preferences. To introduce the examples or the types of a particular banner, we pair 'as' with 'such' and create the idiom or phrase 'such as'. Here Fight Club and Seven Samurai are examples of action movies. Hence option B is correct. 'That' when paired with 'such' refers to an extent of something as in 'It was such an interesting story that I finished reading it in one sitting'. It does not refer to an example. Hence, option A is incorrect. 'If' refers to a condition, a hypothetical situation that may or may not be true as in 'I'll go if you come with me'. There isn't any hypothetical situation here, and 'if' doesn't pair up with 'such' as they have different meanings, hence option C is incorrect. 'Or' is used to present a choice between two things 'this or that'. There isn't a choice between the hobbies in this sentence, hence it can't be paired with 'such' and option D is incorrect.
