Question

Complete the sentence using the most appropriate option:

Hello! Fancy ______ you here! What a surprise!

• A. applying
• B. listening
• C. making
• D. seeing

Answer 1

The correct option is D seeing

Here the word 'you' describes a person. Thus, the verb that most appropriately describes a person is the correct answer.

Option A is incorrect. Applying a person does not make any sense. Hence, it does not fit.

Option B is incorrect. Although listening can be used for a person, using it will make the sentence grammatically incorrect. Here the grammatically correct form for listening would be 'listening to'.

Option C is incorrect. Making a person is not possible, thus making is not a good fit for the blank.

Option D is correct. Seeing a person is possible and 'seeing you' is grammatically correct. Hence, it is the correct answer.
