    Question

    In the question below, four words are given in bold, which may not be arranged in the correct order. Choose the replacement needed between the words to make the sentence correct and meaningful.


    A/an anonymity (A) disadvantage of online discourse (B) is that people can often say whatever (C) they like in complete major (D).

    A.

    Only (A)-(B) and (C)-(D)

    B.

    Only (B)-(C)

    C.

    Only (A)-(C) and (B)-(D)

    D.

    Only (A)-(D)

    E.

    No interchange needed

    Correct option is D

    Correct Answer: D (Only (A)–(D))

    Explanation:

    Original sentence:
    A/an anonymity (A) disadvantage of online discourse (B) is that people can often say whatever (C) they like in complete major (D).

    The sentence is incorrect due to improper word placement in two parts:

    • “A/an anonymity disadvantage” is incorrect. The correct phrase should be “A major disadvantage.”
    • “in complete major” is also incorrect. The correct phrase is “in complete anonymity.”

    Thus, we need to interchange:

    • (A) anonymity with (D) major

    After interchange:
    A major disadvantage of online discourse is that people can often say whatever they like in complete anonymity.

    This sentence is now grammatically correct and meaningful.

    Other options do not correct both errors simultaneously.

    Therefore, the correct answer is (D).
