Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option.

The thief took ______ a large jewel case from the wardrobe.

• A. Out
• B. From
• C. Off
• D. With

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

Out

The given sentence conveys the sense of removing the large jewel case from the wardrobe. Therefore 'out' is the suitable answer, Since 'out' is used to convey the sense of removing something from its former place. Thus option A is correct. On the other hand 'from' is used to depict the source or starting point of something. Hence option B is incorrect. The preposition 'off' is used to indicate separation or indication while 'with' is used to denote a company. Since the sentence speaks about removing something from its former place, 'off' and ' with' are unsuitable in the given context. Hence option C and D are incorrect.

Thus the completed sentence becomes: The thief took out a large jewel case from the wardrobe.
