Fill in the blank in the given sentence by choosing the correct option

He won an award because he had saved someone _______ drowning

Correct option is B

The correct option to fill in the blank is (b) from.

Correct Sentence: He won an award because he had saved someone from drowning.

Grammatical Rule Used:

• The preposition"from"is used to indicate the source or prevention of an action or danger. In this sentence, it describes rescuing someone and preventing them from drowning.

• "Save someone from [something]"is a standard phrase structure that highlights the act of protection or rescue from a threat or harm.
• Rule in Hindi:"From" का उपयोग किसी खतरे या स्थिति से बचाने को व्यक्त करने के लिए किया जाता है।
  

Why other options are incorrect:

• Of:(Hindi: का) Incorrect because "of" does not convey the sense of prevention or rescue.
  • Example:The taste of water.
• For:(Hindi: के लिए) Incorrect because "for" implies purpose or benefit, not protection.
  • Example:This gift is for you.
• On:(Hindi: पर) Incorrect because it refers to position or location, not the act of saving.
  • Example:The book is on the table.

Key Takeaway: Use "from" with actions involving rescue or prevention.
Example: She saved the cat from the fire.
