C) Restaurant
D) Theatre

Answer 1

Hint: In the given question, we have to choose from the above options, an option which best fills in the blank such that the sentence is grammatically correct and makes sense. In the options we are given names of various places and we have to identify the right option.

Complete answer:
First let us know what is Gambling. Gambling refers to games that involve betting or similar activities. People put their money to try their luck in such games.
Before choosing an option let us first understand the meaning of the words given in the options.
A) Hotel: It is a place which provides accommodation, leisure, eating and similar facilities to people. They are usually a place to stay when people are travelling. A hotel may or may not have a restaurant.
B) Casino: It is a place where people organise gambling games or similar amusement games
Restaurant: It is a place which provides meals to the people. Different types of foods are served at a restaurant.
C) Theatre: It is a place where drama, movies, artistic performances, etc.. are shown to people. It could be in the form of an outdoor area, a building, a room or an auditorium.

The correct answer is Casino.
Therefore, the correct sentence will be “A place where gambling games are played is called a Casino.” Even though there is a possibility that a hotel has a casino but Hotel will not be the right answer because it is not the exact place.

Hence, the correct answer is option (B).

Note: All the above explained options except gambling are nouns because they refer to a place. Gambling is a verb because it is an activity or an act of doing something. However, if we say ‘gamble’ then it could be both a noun as well as a verb.
