    Column I
    Column II
    A. She often spend without checking the balance.
    D. rarely spends
    B. She not only did submit the claim, she also attached receipts.
    E. The token had been
    C. Had the token been issued earlier, the queue would have moved faster.
    F. Not only did she

    A.

    A-D

    B.

    B-F; A-D

    C.

    A-E; B-D

    D.

    B-D

    E.

    C- No replacement required

    Correct option is B


    A → D: “She often spend …” needs third-person-singular agreement: “spends.” Replacing the highlighted part with “spends” fixes the verb; D (“rarely spends”) supplies a correct verb form. Note: the adverb changes the meaning (often → rarely), but in such replacement items grammar takes priority over adverbial choice.
    · B → F: Place “not only” before the auxiliary with inversion: “Not only did she submit the claim, she also attached receipts.” Hence B–F.
    · C: “Had the token been issued earlier, the queue would have moved faster.” is already correct (inverted third conditional). Replacing with E (“The token had been…”) would break the conditional/inversion.
    Why others are wrong
    · (a) Misses the required inversion in B.
    · (c) A–E is ungrammatical in context; B–D mismatches meaning and leaves inversion unresolved.
    · (d) B–D maps the wrong fix to B; it still lacks inversion.
    · (e) Ignores the necessary correction in B and the verb agreement in A.
