Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blanks. Call it a blessing or a ______ of Mother Nature, we have to breathe in ______ 10,000 litres of air in a day to remain alive. By making it essential for life, God has wished that we try to ______ the air we breathe clean. Everyone can see the food that is not clean and perhaps refrain from eating it, ______ one cannot stop breathing even if one can feel the air to be polluted.

  • A.curse, over, keep, but
  • B.curse, between, keep, because
  • C.curse, over, keeping, yet
  • D.cursing, over, keep, since

Answer: A

The correct choice is curse, over, keep, but. 'A blessing or a curse' needs a noun after 'a', so 'cursing' is wrong. 'Breathe in over 10,000 litres' means more than that quantity, and 'between' would need two things. 'Try to keep the air clean' takes the base form, not 'keeping'. The final blank links the food that can be seen with the air that cannot, so a contrast word 'but' is needed rather than 'because' or 'since'. 'A blessing or a curse' needs a noun that is the opposite of 'blessing', which is 'curse'.
