B. he cannot be

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Options:

A

B

C

D

Correct Answer:

A

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) - A - (Inspite of his popular)

  • The phrase "Inspite of" is incorrect. The correct form is "In spite of" (written as three separate words).
  • Also, "his popular" is incorrect because "popular" is an adjective and needs a noun after it (e.g., "his popularity").

CORRECT SENTENCE

"In spite of his popularity, he cannot be called a great writer and orator."
