Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:

The new education policy provides a useful ___________ for the planners to remove illiteracy.

• A. Breakup
• B. Breakthrough
• C. Breakaway
• D. Break-in

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Breakthrough

Option B: 'Breakthrough' means 'any significant or sudden advance or development'. It relates to the given sentence: the new education policy helps in sudden development to remove illiteracy.

Hence option B is correct.

Option A: 'Breakup' means 'to disintegrate or disrupt'

Option C: 'Breakaway' means 'a divergence or radical change, through separation from the original, and establishing a new organization'.

Option D: 'Break-in' means 'an illegal entry into a home or a private property'.

These words do not complete the sentence in meaning, and 'breakthrough' is the most appropriate option.

Hence options A, C and D are incorrect.
