    Question

    Substitute the highlighted segment with the most appropriate option. If no substitution is required, select 'No substitution'.
    Eight African cheetahs are freely to reach Kuno Palpur National Park on 17th September.

    A.

    are exactly

    B.

    are likely

    C.

    No substitution

    D.

    are fairly

    Correct option is B


    The correct substitution for the highlighted segment "are freely" is (b) "are likely."
    · The phrase "are likely" indicates the probability or expectation of the event happening, which is appropriate for discussing future events or anticipated actions. The original phrase "are freely" is incorrect in this context as it does not fit the meaning of expectation or probability.
    · Grammatical rule used: To express probability or anticipation about future events, "likely" is used to denote the expected occurrence.
    · Example: "They are likely to arrive on time," where "likely" correctly expresses the probability of the event happening.
