D. Win

Answer 1

Hint:The given sentence suggests that the speaker is going to mark the starting of a task that is a new project. We will choose an option that means the starting of a new task. Let us look for the required option among the given options.

Complete answer:
Let us analyse each option individually in detail to figure out the correct option with the help of the above stated hint.

Start: The word ‘start’ means to begin or set out, to bring something into action. Example: Start this game. By implying this option, the sentence becomes “I will start a new project today”. This word justifies the meaning of the given sentence. Therefore, this is the correct option.

Begin: The word ‘begin’ means to commence, start , to-bring into action. Example: Let us begin with the reviews. By implying this option, the sentence becomes “I will begin a new project today”. This word justifies the meaning of the given sentence. Therefore, this is the correct option.

Perform: The word ‘perform’ means to carry out, fulfil, execute, to do. Example: Let's perform the dance. By implying this option, the sentence becomes “I will perform a new project today”. This word doesn’t justify the meaning of the given sentence. Therefore, this is not the correct option.

Win: The word ‘win’ means to succeed at something by doing it in the best way as compared to others. Example: I want to win this race. By implying this option, the sentence becomes “I will win a new project today”. This word doesn’t justify the meaning of the given sentence. Therefore, this is not the correct option.

Hence, the correct answer is option ‘A’ & ‘B’.

Note:The correct answers are options A and B as both are synonymous. Option C is also close to the answer , but is incorrect as a project is a long term task and we use the word ‘perform’ generally with short term tasks or acts. Example: He will perform the rituals.
