Question

A part of the sentence is underlined. Below are the alternatives which may improve the sentence. Choose the correct alternative. The company said to pay in cash or kind both.

• A. inclined in paying
• B. suggested that pay
• C. has offered to pay
• D. requested to pay

Hint:

"Offered to pay" is the correct construction when someone is making an offer, while "inclined to pay" or "suggested that pay" is not suitable in this context.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

The correct phrase should be "has offered to pay" because the sentence implies that the company has made an offer to pay. The other options either do not make sense in context or are grammatically incorrect.
