A.

A

B.

B

C.

C

D.

D

Correct option is A


Option (a) contains an error.
Explanation: The verb “take” is not the correct collocation with "a cup of tea." The appropriate verb here is “have.”
Correct sentence: Please have a cup of tea with me.
Grammatical rule used:
Certain words collocate naturally in English. "Have a cup of tea" is a fixed collocation, while "take" sounds unnatural or incorrect in this context.
Rule in Hindi:
कुछ शब्द एक साथ प्रयोग में आते हैं जिन्हें collocations कहा जाता है। “Take tea” नहीं बल्कि “have tea” बोला जाता है।
Example:
· Let’s have lunch together.
· He had a cup of coffee before leaving.
