Question

Which of the two sentences given below convey the following meaning?
We do not have sufficient water.

• A. We barely have enough water.
• B. We often have enough water.
• C. Both A and B
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is A We barely have enough water.

Only option A conveys the correct meaning of there being a water shortage: we barely have enough water. So, option A is the correct answer. B simply contradicts the given sentence, C cannot be the answer as A and B contradict each other and D is not the answer. So, A is the best answer.
