Let’s analyze this step by step carefully:
Original sentence:
New enforcement (A) aim to protect user data online, yet regulations (B) across international platforms remains (C) inconsistent.
Step 1: Meanings of the highlighted words
1. Enforcement (A)
· English: The act of ensuring that laws or rules are followed.
· Hindi: प्रवर्तन; कानूनों या नियमों का पालन सुनिश्चित करने की प्रक्रिया।
· Example: Strict enforcement of traffic laws reduces accidents.
2. Regulations (B)
· English: Rules or laws made by authorities to control conduct.
· Hindi: विनियम; नियम या कानून जो व्यवहार को नियंत्रित करते हैं।
· Example: Environmental regulations are becoming more stringent.
3. Remains (C)
· English: Continues to be; stays the same.
· Hindi: बना रहना, जारी रहना।
· Example: The issue remains unresolved despite several discussions.
Step 2: Identify grammatical and contextual errors
· “New enforcement aim…” → Incorrect because “enforcement” is a singular noun, so it cannot “aim.” The subject performing the action should be plural — “regulations aim” makes sense.
· “regulations … remains” → Incorrect subject-verb agreement. “Regulations” is plural, so the verb should be “remain,” not “remains.”
Hence, A and B need to be swapped for contextual and grammatical correctness.
Step 3: Rearrangement (B–A–C)
After swapping A and B, we get:
New regulations aim to protect user data online, yet enforcement across international platforms remains inconsistent.
Step 4: Explanation
· “Regulations aim” — Correct plural subject-verb agreement.
· “Enforcement remains inconsistent” — Grammatically and contextually correct; refers to the uneven application of laws.
· “Remains” — Correctly used here for singular noun “enforcement.”
Corrected sentence:
New regulations aim to protect user data online, yet enforcement across international platforms remains inconsistent.
Answer: (b) BAC
