Select the appropriate article/ preposition to complete the following sentences whenever necessary.
He left medicine in between and decided to take ______ music for higher studies as that was his real passion.
Answer: A
The right word is up: 'decided to take up music for higher studies'.
The phrasal verb take up means to begin studying or pursuing a subject or activity, which fits a student switching from medicine to music.
'Take of', 'take upon' and 'take in' do not mean to begin a subject; take in means to absorb or to deceive, and take upon oneself means to accept a responsibility.
For example: 'After retiring, he took up gardening.'
