Question 39
Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blanks.
The migrant workers, feeling tired _____ a long journey, rested _______ the shade of a big banyan tree.
Solution
Option C: Correct.
The correct usage of prepositions is the key here.
We can take up the second blank first and understand that if one is resting in the periphery of a tree, one rests "under" it, so now we are left with option C and D.
Now we check the first blank. Feeling tired "after" a long journey is right.
