(a) My services are at your disposal.
(b) The train is behind the time.
(c) He was hung for murder.
(d) He is hardly pressed for time.

  • A.My services are at your disposal.
  • B.The train is behind the time.
  • C.He was hung for murder.
  • D.He is hardly pressed for time.

Answer: A

The correct sentence is My services are at your disposal.

'At your disposal' means available for you to use as you wish, and 'my services are at your disposal' is the standard formal offer of help.

The others contain errors. 'Behind time' (late) takes no article, so 'The train is behind time'; 'behind the times' means old-fashioned. A person executed by hanging is hanged; hung is used for things such as pictures. And 'hard pressed for time' is the idiom, since hardly means 'scarcely', which reverses the sense.
