Solution

The correct option is C hospital

The above mentioned sentence would have Option C, “hospital” as the answer.

The sentence contains three nouns: the hospital, the boy and the Principal. While ‘the boy’ is specifically used for the male gender, to depict the younger version of a man, ‘the principal’ is a common gender noun used for both the genders. Option B, ‘admit’, is a verb which will not be considered.

Thus, Option C, “hospital”, is the correct answer as it is a material which is not dependent on a specific gender, and is a neuter gender noun.
