Question:

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank and complete the collocation.

Akshay always gives ______ to Johana for his success

Options:

blame

chance

opportunity

credit

Correct Answer:

credit

Explanation:

The most appropriate option to fill in the blank and complete the collocation is credit.

The sentence is about Akshay, who is always grateful to Johana for his success. The word "credit" means to give someone praise or recognition for something they have done. It is the most appropriate option because it conveys the idea that Akshay believes that Johana played a significant role in his success.

The other options are incorrect.

  • Blame means to say that someone is responsible for something bad that has happened. It does not make sense to say that Akshay gives Johana blame for his success.
  • Chance means an opportunity that comes your way by luck. It does not make sense to say that Akshay gives Johana chance for his success.
  • Opportunity means a chance to do something. It does not make sense to say that Akshay gives Johana opportunity for his success.
