A ‘gate-crasher’ is a person who attends a party or an event without being invited to it. Which of the following situations is the best example of a gate-crasher?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → Sameer has no invitation, but he walks into the wedding reception of a family he does not know and eats at the buffet.
A gate-crasher must do two things: attend a party or an event, and do so without an invitation.
In Option (2) Sameer has no invitation, yet he walks into the reception and eats there. Both parts are present.
Why the other options are incorrect
Option (1) Pooja reaches her best friend’s birthday party an hour late, though she was invited to it. — Incorrect. Pooja was invited; arriving late does not change that.
Option (3) Sameer is invited to his colleague’s wedding but decides not to go. — Incorrect. Sameer does not attend the wedding at all.
Option (4) Manish was not invited to his neighbour’s party, so he sends a gift and stays at home. — Incorrect. Manish was not invited, but he does not attend the party.
