Question 1 Report

From the words or group of words lettered A to D, choose the one that best completes each of the following sentences.
If you don't withdraw the defamatory statement, I shall have no alternative.........seek redress in a court of law.
Answer Details
The correct option is "but to". The sentence means that the speaker will have no other option but to seek redress in a court of law if the defamatory statement is not withdrawn. "But to" is an idiomatic expression that means "have no other option except to". The other options presented do not fit the context and do not convey the intended meaning of the sentence.
