Question 1 Report

From the words or group of words labelled A to D, choose the one that best completes each of the following sentences.
The government has a special programme for........
Answer Details
The correct option to complete the sentence is "the poor" (Option A). In English, "poor" is an adjective that describes people who do not have enough money or resources to meet their basic needs. When used as a noun, it refers to people who belong to this category. Therefore, the article "the" should be used before "poor" to make it a noun and refer to a specific group of people who are experiencing poverty. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because "poors" is not a valid word in English.
