From the options below, choose the one that provides the correct combination of words of each pair that will replace the highlighted word.Solution
(b) We need a verb in the base form to fit in the infinitive construction TO + VERB. The sentence talks about how it is important for managers to accept that they are shedding one professional identity to adopt a new role with more of a focus on their teams than themselves. UNDERSTAND, ACKNOWLEDGE and RECOGNISE will fit here. Thus, (b) is the right answer. UNDERSTANDING and ACKNOWLEDGES are incorrect as they are not in the base form. RECOGNITION is a noun.
