English Language (SBI-CL) Sentence Improvement

Directions: Which of the phrases A, B, C and D given below each sentence should replace the phrase printed in bold in the sentence to make it grammatically correct? If the sentence is correct as it is given and ‘No correction is required’, Mark E as the answer.

He has visited many places all over the city looked at the perfect location to set up his factory.

looking out

looking for

looking after

looked forward to

No correction required

Explanation:

The sentence implies that the person (subject) is in search of a location for his factory setup. Therefore, the only participle that goes well with the context of the sentence is 'looking for'.

Look out (Phrasal Verb): be vigilant and take notice.

Look after (Phrasal Verb): take care of

Look forward to (Phrasal Verb): await eagerly

Look for (Phrasal Verb): to hope to get something that you want or need

Clearly, 'looking for' replaces the bold part most appropriately.

Hence, option B is correct.
