Question
In the question below, a sentence is given with one
blank, followed by five options, each having two words which may or may not fit in the blank. From the given options, choose the one that gives the correct pair of words that fit in the blank. The box was small and wrapped in paper with tiny silver and red glitter dots, ____ the statue of laughing Buddha.Solution
The given sentence talks about a small box decorated having a statue of a laughing Buddha in it. The blank requires the -ing form of a verb to convey the action performed on the object ('statue of laughing Buddha'). Among the given options, the pair of 'containing' and 'carrying' fits in the blank appropriately. 'Containing' means having or holding something within. 'Carrying' means transporting from one place to another. Both appropriately describe the constituents of the box. Hence, (d) is the correct answer. The rest of the options are negated because they don't fit in contextually.
