Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D. D

Explanation

The verb 'contribute' takes the preposition 'to', not 'in' — one contributes to a cause. The wrong preposition is printed in part D, so the corrected sentence reads 'The Jews were most reluctant to contribute to the Palestinian cause.' Hence part D is the incorrect one.क्रिया 'contribute' के साथ पूर्वसर्ग 'to' आता है, 'in' नहीं — व्यक्ति किसी उद्देश्य में to के साथ योगदान देता है। ग़लत पूर्वसर्ग भाग D में छपा है, अतः शुद्ध वाक्य होगा 'The Jews were most reluctant to contribute to the Palestinian cause.' इसलिए भाग D अशुद्ध है।
