Solution

The correct option is B During high tides, big ships can reach the ports thus opening new vistas for business.
Option B is correct because it is clearly mentioned in the passage that - 'During the high tide, the water depth near the coast goes up and helps big ships to reach the ports.'
This could result in generating more business thereby raising the economy of the country.
There is no evidence in the passsage to suggest that Options A and C are the right answers.
Hence, these are incorrect.
Option D is incorrect because the right answer is Option B.
