रिक्त स्थान 5 को भरने के लिए सबसे उपयुक्त विकल्प का चयन करें।
Options:
- a) affect
- b) result
- c) blow
- d) impact
- a) प्रभाव डालना (affect – verb)
- b) परिणाम (result)
- c) आघात/झोंका (blow)
- d) प्रभाव (impact – noun)
correct answer : d)
Explanation:
The blank is preceded by ‘the’ and followed by ‘that a work of art leaves on our senses’. We need a noun here. ‘Impact’ (a strong effect or influence) is the correct noun. Thus, option (d) is correct.
रिक्त स्थान से पहले ‘the’ लगा है, जिसके बाद संज्ञा (noun) का प्रयोग होना चाहिए। ‘impact’ (प्रभाव) एक संज्ञा है, जबकि ‘affect’ एक क्रिया (verb) है। अतः ‘impact that a work of art leaves’ सही रूप है। विकल्प (d) सही है।
