Complete the following sentences by choosing the most appropriate phrase from the options given below.
The standards set by the examination board are so high that it would be difficult for poorly prepared students to __________
This statement highlights how difficult it would be for students who are ill-prepared to meet the high standards set by an examination board. Therefore, the blank should be filled with a phrase that suggests meeting a standard or being deemed acceptable.
"Pass muster" (Option D) is a well-known expression that means to be deemed satisfactory or to meet the required standard. It fits in best with the idea that students are being evaluated against high standards.
The other choices are not correct. "Pass most errors" (Option A) is not a recognised phrase and is not contextually or grammatically appropriate."Past muster" (Option B) is a common misspelling and misuse of the correct idiom "pass muster". "Get past most errors" (Option C) is overly literal and specific, missing the larger meaning of upholding high standards.
Option D is therefore the correct answer in this case.
