Complete the given sentence with the most suitable Phrasal Verb:
You will have to _____ to a website to get the latest information on this topic.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → log in
A phrasal verb is a verb joined with a small word such as up, out or together. The two words together have a new meaning.
To log in is to enter one's name and password to start using a computer system or website. To get the latest information from a website, one first logs in to it.
Example: You must log in to the portal to download your admit card.
Complete sentence: You will have to log in to a website to get the latest information on this topic.
Why the Other Options are Incorrect?
Option 2: log off — Incorrect. To log off is to end a session on a computer or website. One cannot get information by leaving the site.
Example: Always log off after using a shared computer.
Option 3: log by — Incorrect. "Log by" is not a phrasal verb in English.
Option 4: log out — Incorrect. Log out means the same as log off: to leave a website or system, the opposite of what the sentence needs.
Example: She logged out of her email account before leaving the office.
