Correct option is A


The correct option to substitute the highlighted segment in the sentence "What will you do in case of not being selected for this job?" is option (a) No substitution required.
Explanation:
· The phrase "in case of not being selected" is grammatically correct. It uses the correct passive voice ("being selected") combined with a negative construction to express the scenario of not getting selected for the job. This structure effectively conveys the intended conditional meaning, posing a question about actions in the event of a particular outcome.
Grammatical Rule Involved:
· Passive Voice in Conditional Clauses: The use of "being + past participle" in a conditional phrase ("in case of") correctly sets up a scenario where the subject (the job applicant) is the recipient of an action (selection) that may not happen. This structure is common in formal or conditional queries about potential situations.
