Question

Out of the given alternatives, choose the one which best expresses the meaning of the italicized part of the sentence.
He was dismissed from service because they found him dishonest.

• A. prevented
• B. removed
• C. retired
• D. stopped

Answer 1

The correct option is B removed

The highlighted word means 'Fired'.

Option B is correct. 'Removed', in this context, also means 'fired'. Thus, it has the required meaning and is the correct answer.

Options A, C and D are incorrect. They do not have the required meaning.

'Prevented' means 'stopped from happening' and 'Retired' means 'no longer working'.
