Question

Select the most appropriate collocating word to fill in the blank.
There is________ traffic every morning.

A.

big

B.

heavy

C.

lengthy

D.

long

Correct option is B

The correct option to fill in the blank is (b) heavy.
Explanation: "Heavy traffic" is a common and natural English collocation, which means a large number of vehicles on the road causing congestion. (भारी ट्रैफिक, भीड़भाड़ वाली स्थिति)
Example: I was late for work due to heavy traffic.
Why other options are incorrect:
·  (a) big – “Big” is not commonly used with "traffic".
·  (c) lengthy – Used for time durations or documents, not traffic.
·  (d) long – Used for distance, not appropriate with “traffic”.
�� Collocation Info: Collocations are habitual combinations of words like "make a decision", "strong coffee", and "heavy traffic". They sound natural to native speakers.
