Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.

She jumped _____ the lake _____ rescue the dog _____ any hesitation.

Answer और ExplanationAnswer and explanation

Answer: (B) into, to, without

पहला रिक्त स्थान: वह पानी के अंदर जाती है, यानी सीमा वाला स्थान, इसलिए into।
दूसरा रिक्त स्थान: rescue क्रिया है, इसलिए उद्देश्य infinitive (मूल क्रिया-रूप) to rescue से दिखता है।
तीसरा रिक्त स्थान: उसने बिना हिचकिचाहट के किया, इसलिए without।
✓
She jumped into the lake to rescue the dog without any hesitation.
First blank: she goes inside the water, a space with a boundary, so into.
Second blank: rescue is a verb, so the purpose is shown with the infinitive to rescue.
Third blank: she did it with no hesitation, so without.
✓
She jumped into the lake to rescue the dog without any hesitation.

बाकी Options उत्तर क्यों नहीं हैंWhy the other options are not the answer

A'on, for, with' उचित लगा। परंतु पहला 'into' और दूसरा 'to' होना चाहिए।'on, for, with' looked right because 'on the lake' feels natural. But she goes into the water, so the first blank is 'into', and the purpose needs 'to'.
C'over, to, for' लगभग सही लगा। परंतु पहला और तीसरा शब्द अनुचित हैं।'over, to, for' has the right 'to' for purpose. But 'over' suggests jumping above the lake, and 'for any hesitation' is wrong; 'without' is needed.
D'onto, for, from' उचित लगा। परंतु तीनों शब्द अनुचित हैं।'onto, for, from' looked right as 'onto' suggests landing and 'for' suggests rescue. But she went into the water, 'rescue' needs the infinitive, and 'from any hesitation' is wrong.
