Question

Fill in the blank with the most option:
You have played a great role, for __________ your help I possibly would have landed myself into a problem.

• A. Despite
• B. Although
• C. After
• D. Without

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

Without

'For' means 'because of or as a result of something'.

Option D: 'Without' means 'not having the use or benefit of'. It forms a sentence complete in meaning: 'You have played a great role, because without your help (not having your help) I possibly would have landed myself into a problem.'

Hence option D is correct.

Option A: 'Despite' means 'without being affected by'.

Option B: 'Although' means 'in spite of the fact that'.

Option C: 'After' means 'in the time following an event'.

These words do not complete the sentence in meaning and relevance. 'For' refers to reason, but these words do not complete that reason. Hence options A, B and C are wrong.
