b) Owing to the heavy rains

c) Because of raining heavily

d) In raining heavily

e) No correction required

Answer: (b)

'Owing to the heavy rains' expresses the reason of damage and collapse. Hence this is the correct option.

Other options are deliberately distorted, hence they are ruled out.

Question : 6

It has become a fashion to talk about exercise restraint on any thing and everything.

a) exercise without restrain

b) restraining exercises

c) exercising without restrain

d) exercising restraint

e) No correction required

Answer: (d)

After a preposition (Here it is ‘about’) the verb takes gerund (v+ing). Hence ‘exercise’ should be ‘exercising’.

Due to this options (a) and (c) are ruled out. Now let us consider option (b). Here in this option, an extra word ‘without’ has been inserted. Such type of insertion makes the sentence absurd.

Hence this option cannot be correct. Option (d) is least deviated from the phrase in bold. Hence (d) is the correct option.
