Question:

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.

I am always ____ for good books.

Options:

looking out

looking down

looking after

looking into

Correct Answer:

looking out

Explanation:

The most appropriate option to fill in the blank is:looking out

The sentence should be: "I am always looking out for good books."

Explanation:
- "Looking out for" means to be watchful or alert in search of something.
- In this context, the speaker is expressing that they are always vigilant or actively searching for good books to read.
- Therefore, "looking out" is the correct choice to fill in the blank.

  • Looking out implies searching or keeping an eye out for something, which perfectly fits the context of seeking good books.
  • Looking down suggests looking in a downwards direction, which isn't relevant to searching for books.
  • Looking after can mean taking care of something, but it doesn't capture the act of searching for new books.
  • Looking into might be used for investigating something specific, but "looking out" is a more general expression for actively searching.
