    Question

    In the question below, a sentence is given with two

    blanks to be filled in with appropriate words. Four alternatives are suggested for each question. Choose the correct alternative out of the four. In the case that none of the options fit in the sentence, choose 'None of the above'. The hardest part about _________ a task to someone else is trusting that they will do it well and many managers are reluctant to turn over their responsibilities to someone who may not meet that __________.
    A transfer, expecting Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B delegating, expectation Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C assigning, expect Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D entrusting, expected Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of the above Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    1st blank- it requires a verb in continuous form while 2nd blank requires a noun to be filled in. 'expecting', 'expect' and 'expected': verbs in different forms; 'expectation': noun; hence, (b) is the right answer.
