Solution
The correct option is A sketched Option B: 'Sketched' means 'make a rough drawing of'. The word completes the sentence in meaning: the architect made a rough drawing, a simple plan of his design. Hence option B is correct.
Option A: 'Designed' means 'planned and conceived in detail or for a specific purpose'. The design has already been made, so this word is not so suitable to use again.
Option C: 'Built' means 'construct by putting parts together'.
Option D: 'Constructed' means 'make or form'.
These words cannot be drawn on "the blackboard". Hence options A, C and D are wrong.
