Question : Directions: In the following question, the sentence given with a blank is to be filled in with an appropriate word. Select the correct alternative out of the four.
Keith has ___ with a failure in English examination thrice.
Option 1: caught
Option 2: gone
Option 3: got
Option 4: met
Correct Answer: met
Solution : The fourth option is the correct answer for the sentence because 'met' is correctly used with the noun 'failure' and contextually fits in the sentence. "Caught with failure", "gone with failure" and "got with failure" do not convey the proper meaning. Hence, it makes the explanation of the sentence as 'Keith has failed in English examination thrice'.
Therefore, the correct statement should be "Keith has met with a failure in English examination thrice."
