English Language (SBI-CL) Sentence Completion

Which of the following phrases (I), (II), and (III) given below each sentence will fit into the blank to make the sentence grammatically correct? Choose the best option among the five given alternatives that reflect the correct use of the phrase in the context of the grammatically correct sentence.

The innovation of brilliant minds ____________________________________________ an amazing technology such as space flight or the internet.

(I) is what grants humanity

(II) are what grant humanity

(III) what grant humanity

Only (I) is correct

Only (III) is correct

Both (I) and (II) are correct

Both (I) and (III) are correct

None is correct

Explanation:

Correct Answer is (a).Alternative (I) precisely fills the blank to form a grammatically correct and contextually meaningful sentence. While carefully reading the sentence, it is understood that the subject of the sentence is “the innovation” which is in its singular form rather than ‘beautiful minds’. Therefore the auxiliary verb associated with the subject should also be in its singular form. Since, alternative (I) satisfies this condition, option (a) becomes the most suitable answer choice.
