| List-I | List-II | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| A. If the food is hot, I'll have it; otherwise I'll just have the salad. | III. otherwise | Otherwise means if not, or else. It gives what will happen if the condition (hot food) is not met. |
| B. Neither did I say that, nor should you interpret my views as obsolete. | IV. nor | Nor adds a second negative after "neither". Like "neither", it is followed by the inverted order "should you". |
| C. I will use your services provided you adhere to the company rules. | I. provided | Provided (that) means on the condition that. The services will be used only if the rules are followed. |
| D. Make hay while the sun shines. | II. while | While means during the time that. The proverb advises using a good chance as long as it lasts. |
