    Question

    Select the most appropriate option to collocate with the word 'sight' to fill in the blank.

    Where are you? It is so difficult to __________ sight of you.

    A.

    have

    B.

    get

    C.

    catch

    D.

    keep

    Correct option is C

    Explanation: The standard collocation is “catch sight of”, which means to see something briefly or suddenly.

    Example: I was lucky to catch sight of a shooting star last night.

    Explain why other options are incorrect:

    • Have sight: Not a valid collocation.
    • Get sight: Informally used, but not grammatically standard.
    • Keep sight: Used in “keep sight of something” to mean maintain view, not sudden appearance.

    Information Booster: Learn fixed verb-noun collocations for native-like fluency (e.g., catch fire, catch sight, take charge).
