We can succeed ______ by hard work.

Options:

almost

enough

only

never

Correct Answer:

only

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) - only

  • The sentence "We can succeed only by hard work." emphasizes that hard work is the sole method to achieve success.

OTHER OPTIONS

  • "almost" → Suggests a near success, which doesn't fit the context.
  • "enough" → Implies sufficiency but does not convey the exclusive means of success.
  • "never" → Indicates impossibility, which contradicts the statement.
