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.

Correct Answertoo expensive for
Incorrect Answerso expensive but
Incorrect Answermore expensive
Incorrect AnswerNo correction required
Incorrect AnswerExplanation:
The original sentence is incorrect.
Option B can be eliminated because 'too' must be followed by an infinitive (to + verb1) which is not the case here.
Option C gets eliminated too because 'so' must be followed by 'that' which is again not the case here.
Option D gets eliminated because no comparison is made in the sentence and it gets confirmed by the absence of the preposition 'than' in the sentence.
However, option A replaces the bold part appropriately and thus becomes the best replacement among all.
Hence, option A is correct.
