Question

Complete the sentence with the most suitable word:
A cheque is a slip of paper that tells the bank how much money it should ______ from your account and pay to the presenter of the cheque.
A) Earn
B) Withdraw
C) Save
D) keep

Answer 1

Hint: Most suitable word means that fits the best in the blank. Suitable means right or appropriate for something.

Complete step by step answer:
Option A) Earn – is an incorrect answer because the meaning of earn is ‘to get money by working or per day wages’ in the sentence it states that a person wants that through cheque he or she can get money. Earn is not appropriate here in the blank. Thus, this is an incorrect answer.
Option B) Withdraw – is the correct answer because the meaning of withdraw is ‘to remove something or to take something’ and this word is most appropriate in the blank. Thus, this is the correct answer.
A cheque is a slip of paper that tells the bank how much money it should withdraw from your account and pay to the presenter of the cheque
Option C) Save – is an incorrect answer because the meaning of save is ‘to keep or not to spend money so that it can be used later’ and this is not appropriate in the sentence. Thus, this is an incorrect answer.
Option D) keep – is an incorrect answer because the meaning of keep is ‘to make something or somebody stay in a particular state’ and this is not appropriate in the sentence. Thus, this is an incorrect answer.

So, the correct answer is “Option B ”.

Note:
From the words given in the options, 'withdraw' is the most suitable one, because a cheque is written in order to take out money from the account. The presenter of the cheque is the person who withdraws the money. We use the word 'withdraw' when we want to take out some money from our account. Hence option B is correct. The other words do not complete the sentence logically, hence options A, C and D are wrong.
