Question

The master dispensed ________ the services of his servant. Choose the most appropriate word to fill the blank.
A. Up
B. With
C. From
D. Through

Answer 1

Hint: The sentences that we read and study in grammar are made up of a few, specific elements that help in forming the basic meaning of the sentence. We have read and studied about the subject, the object, the verb and the helping verbs that accompany verbs. Prepositions are an integral part of speech. They are used to establish relationships between the noun and the verb. The usage of prepositions changes with the type of subject (noun).

Complete answer:
1. In order to find the correct option, we need to understand and check the given options one by one.
2. The word 'up' means in or into higher position or level. Here, this word is not in context with the given statement. Hence, this option is incorrect.
3. The preposition 'from' is used to specify getting away in relation with something. The word is not in accordance with the context of the given statement and hence is incorrect.
4. The fourth word 'through' means going into something. This word is also incorrect with the given statement.
5. The second word, 'with' means to be along something. This word fits in the given context properly. Therefore, the word 'with' is the correct option.

Hence the correct answer is option ‘B’

Note: The use of correct preposition is very important in order to specify the correct context of the sentence. For example, the word 'with' is the only option that goes here perfectly. In our question sentence, the word ‘with’ is related with the services of his servant in order to be connected with the word ‘dispensed’ of the master.
