Correct option is A
The correct option is (a).
- Explanation: The sentence requires a phrase that correctly connects the completed action with the main clause. After finishing is the most suitable and natural expression here: “After finishing my work, I went out to play.”
- Correct answer word – After finishing
Hindi meaning: काम पूरा करने के बाद
Example: After finishing his homework, he went to bed. - Grammar Rule involved: A prepositional phrase with a gerund can be used to show that one action happened before another action.
- Why not the others:
- I finished would make the sentence ungrammatical if directly placed before “my work”.
- Having finished is also grammatically possible in general usage, but the expected simple completion in this item is After finishing.
So the correct answer is (a)
