Choose appropriate words which give a complete meaning to the sentence from the given options.

We were thinking ______ it _______ something like a requiem for our age.

  • A.for, because
  • B.for, as
  • C.of, as
  • D.of, since

Answer: C

Correct answer: of, as

“Think of X as Y” is the fixed construction for describing how something is regarded, and both halves are required - “think for” is not English in this sense, and “because” and “since” introduce a reason rather than a description. The sentence says the speakers regarded the thing as a kind of requiem, which is exactly what “of … as” expresses.
