Pick out the most effective word from the given words to fill the blanks to make the sentence meaningfully complete. .......... we get equality in education, we won't .......... an equal society
Show Hint
After modal auxiliary verbs (will, shall, can, may, must, would, should, etc.) and their negative forms (won't, can't, etc.), always use the base form of the main verb (e.g., go, see, have, be). Do not use the -s, -ed, or -ing forms.
Step 1: Understanding the Sentence
The sentence expresses a condition and a result. The first part sets a condition that must be met before the second part can happen. The first blank needs a conjunction that means "up to the time that". The second blank needs a verb to go with the subject "we" and the object "an equal society".
Step 2: Evaluating the Options
First Blank: The sentence structure implies that an equal society will not exist before the condition of equal education is met. The conjunction that expresses this time-based condition is "Until". "Though" expresses a contrast, which doesn't fit the logic here. So, the first word must be "Until".
Second Blank: The main clause is "we won't ________ an equal society". After the modal verb "won't" (will not), the base form of the main verb is required. The verb that means "to possess or hold" an equal society is "have". The subject "we" also agrees with "have". "Has" is for the third-person singular (he/she/it).
Let's check the pairs:
(A) Though, had: Both words are incorrect.
(B) Until, have: Both words fit perfectly. "Until we get equality... we won't have an equal society."
(C) Until, has: "Has" does not agree with the subject "we".
(D) Though, has: Both words are incorrect.
Step 3: Final Answer
The conjunction "Until" correctly establishes the condition, and the verb "have" is the correct form to follow "won't". Therefore, option (B) is the correct answer.
