Solution
The correct option is A Chop Option
A is the right answer because ‘chop’ means ‘to cut into pieces with knife’. The
sentence describes that to make a curry, few onions, a potato, and a small piece
of ginger.
Option B is the incorrect because ‘strip’ means ‘to remove or a long narrow
piece’. ‘Strip’ is not an appropriate word for the sentence as the meaning is
incorrect for this context.
Option C is incorrect because ‘saw’ means ‘to see’. The word grammatically
inappropriate for the sentence and also doesn’t complete the meaning.
Option D is incorrect because ‘bite’ means ‘to cut with teeth’. According to
the sentence to make a curry, the vegetables have to be cut but ‘bite’ is
incorrect for this context.
