Question : Directions: In this question, a sentence is given with a blank to be filled in with appropriate words. Four alternatives are suggested for each question. Choose the correct alternative out of the four alternatives.
My servant ___ with all my money.
Option 1: Have escaped
Option 2: Was run away
Option 3: Has run off
Option 4: Running away
Correct Answer: Has run off
Solution : The correct phrase to fill in the blank is the third option.
Has run off is the correct tense and phrasing to indicate that the servant has left with the money. It is in the present perfect tense, which is appropriate for describing an action that has happened recently and has an impact on the present.
Have is not used here because it is used with a plural noun and my servant is a singular subject.
The other options are not grammatically correct and also do not convey the intended meaning.
So, the sentence should be: "My servant has run off with all my money."
