Solution

The correct option is A For

Answer : A

In English language, certain words are followed by certain specific prepositions. Such prepositions are known as appropriate prepositions.

For the word "send", appropriate preposition is "for".

The phrasal verb send for in option (a) is correct as it means, to ask or tell somebody to come to you, especially in order to help you.

Thus, the correct complete sentence is:

The Cinema Hall was on fire and the Cinema owner had to send FOR the Fire Brigade.
