Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Understand the sentence meaning.
The blank must be filled with a word that shows possession of the contributions. The sentence is about "contributions belonging to you."
Step 2: Check each option.
(A) you are — Incorrect. This expands to "Send you are contributions," which is grammatically wrong.
(B) your — Correct. This denotes possession: "your contributions" = the contributions belonging to you.
(C) you're — Incorrect. This expands to "you are," leading to "Send you are contributions," which is nonsensical.
(D) yore — Incorrect. "Yore" means "time long past," which does not fit.
Step 3: Final check.
Only "your" makes the sentence correct:
"You are delaying the completion of the task. Send your contributions at the earliest."
Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{\text{your (Option B)}}
\]

Early rising leads to health and happiness. The man who rises late, can have little rest in the course of the day. Anyone who lies in bed late is compelled to work till a late hour in the evening. He has to do without the evening exercise which is so necessary for his health. In spite of all his efforts his work will not produce as good results as that of the early riser. The reason for this is that he cannot take advantage of the refreshing hours of the morning. Some people say that the quiet hour of midnight is the best time for working. Several great thinkers say that they can write best only when they burn the midnight oil. Yet it is true to say that few men have a clear brain at midnight when the body needs rest and sleep. Those who work at that time, soon ruin their health. Bad health must, in the long run, have a bad effect on the quality of their work.

The Indian National Army plans went away with the defeat of Japan. Subhash Bose was killed in a plane accident while on his way to Tokyo. It is true that many leaders did not like the idea of India winning freedom with the assistance of a country like Japan and her fascist allies. But during the closing years of the war, Subhash Bose and the Indian National Army served to hold up the dropping spirits of the nationalist Indians at home, who were feeling helpless and frustrated. They set before all sections of the Indian people, including those serving in the army, an example of courage and patriotism which was both inspiring and ennobling. Therefore, when the Government announced their decision to prosecute some of the Indian National Army officers for treason because they had broken their oath of loyalty to the British crown, there was a wave of nationalist protest. There were massive demonstrations all over the country. There were persistent demands that the officers should be released.
