Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
Today many parents ________ their children go to bed late.

• A. get
• B. let
• C. do
• D. force

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

let

"Get" indicates coming into possession of something. This is unrelated to the context.
"Let" indicates giving permission. This is correct as the context refers to permission by parents.
"Do" indicates performing a task. This is incorrect as its usage in the context is ungrammatical.
"Force" indicates compelling someone to do a task. The context refers to permission for going to bed late. It does not indicate force as it is too strong a word for the context.
Thus, option B is the correct answer.
