Question and options
Which of the given phrases should replace the phrase given in bold (shown here in capitals) in the sentence to make it meaningful and grammatically correct?
Kindly ask HIS ADVISE REGARDING the various health insurance policies presently available.
- him to advise that
- regarding his advice
- that he should advice
- his advice regarding
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D - his advice regarding
“Advice” is the noun and “advise” the verb, so the request should read “Kindly ask his advice regarding the various health insurance policies presently available”. “That he should advice” uses the noun as a verb, “him to advise that” leaves the rest of the sentence without a clause, and “regarding his advice” scrambles the word order.
