Correct option is B
The bracketed word “enough” is incorrect because the structure “the ___ of” requires a noun to make the sentence meaningful.
- Correct phrase: “the abundance of clay” = a large quantity of clay (मिट्टी की प्रचुर मात्रा)
Correct sentence:
- The Babylonians took advantage of the abundance of clay in Mesopotamia to create bricks.
Meaning (English + Hindi):
- abundance (noun) = plenty / a large quantity (प्रचुरता / बहुतायत)
Why other options are incorrect:
- (A) abundantly (adverb) (प्रचुर मात्रा में): adverb cannot fit after “the” and before “of” in this structure.
- (C) abundant (adjective) (प्रचुर): adjective would need a noun after it (e.g., “abundant clay”), but here we need “the + noun + of”.
- (D) No Correction Required: incorrect because “the enough of clay” is not grammatically acceptable.
