Correct option is D
The correct substitution of the highlighted words is
(d) me a blister.
Explanation: The word
“blistered” is incorrect here as it is an adjective. The sentence needs a noun in singular form (
a blister) to fit grammatically with
"a".
Grammatical rule used:
·
"a" is used with singular countable nouns.
· "Blistered" is an adjective, not a noun.
· Correct noun form is
"blister" (a swelling on the skin filled with fluid).
Example: The tight shoes gave me
a blister.
Information Booster:
· "Blistered" can be used as a verb or adjective (e.g., His skin was blistered by the sun), but not as a noun.
