Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Options:

C only

A only

B only

D only

Correct Answer:

C only

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) - C only -- Made or done suddenly for a particular purpose.

Ad-hoc means something made or done suddenly for a particular purpose, without planning ahead. It describes something that is temporary or created specifically for a particular situation or task.

Teacher - This is a profession, not a way of doing something.


Advance payment - This refers to a payment made before something is received, not the purpose behind doing something.


Quickly stepping inside a hall - This describes an action, but not the nature or planning behind it.
