Explanation:

Correct Answer is (d).According to the given sentence, many students became unconscious due to the extremely hot weather conditions in the city and it prompted the principal of the school to declare holidays. ‘Pass by’ refers to going past somebody or something whereas pass on refers to die. Pass over also means to die. Only ‘pass out’ refers to become unconscious for some reason. So, ‘pass out’ should be used.
The correct sentence will therefore be:
The Principal had to declare holidays for the school since so many pupils passed out due to extreme temperature in the city.
This makes Option D the right choice among the given options.
