Fill Blanks

Question:

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.
I have given her______.

Options:

a work

a piece of work

some works

many works

Correct Answer:

a piece of work

Explanation:

I have given her a piece of work.

Explanation:

  • A work: While "work" can refer to a task or activity, it is more commonly used in the plural form "works" when discussing multiple tasks or projects.
  • A piece of work: This phrase refers to a specific task or project, making it the most suitable option to complete the sentence.
  • Some works: This phrase is in the plural form and may imply multiple tasks or projects, which doesn't necessarily match the context of the sentence.
  • Many works: This phrase indicates a significant number of tasks or projects, which might not accurately reflect the intended meaning of the sentence. "A piece of work" is a more appropriate choice.
