Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blanks. Travellers to space go beyond the orbit of the earth and ______ the orbit of the moon. On the other ______, the suborbital tourist will travel in a rocket ______ the International Space Station only. Space travel is not possible for everyone, ______ suborbital tourism is a possible alternative.

  • A.reached, hand, upto, because
  • B.reach, hand, onto, since
  • C.reach, hand, upto, but
  • D.reach, hands, into, and

Answer: C

The right choice is reach, hand, upto, but. 'Go beyond the orbit of the earth and reach the orbit of the moon' keeps both verbs in the base form after 'go', and 'On the other hand' is the fixed phrase. 'Upto the International Space Station' fits 'only', and the last blank needs a contrast, 'not possible for everyone, but suborbital tourism is a possible alternative'. 'Reached' breaks the tense, 'hands' spoils the idiom, and 'since' or 'and' do not give the contrast.
