Question and options
Select the best option from the four alternatives given.
__________ to your error the __________ consignment has been delayed by a week.
__________ to your error the __________ consignment has been delayed by a week.
- According, important
- Duly, urgent
- Owing, entire
- Added, crucial
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C - Owing, entire
'Owing to your error' is the idiomatic cause phrase, and 'the entire consignment' fits the article and meaning. 'According to your error' and 'Duly to' are wrong; 'Added to' does not fit.
