Previous Year Questions

The sentence talks about the leakage of water in the sink. The word 'leek' which means 'a plant related to the onion, with flat overlapping leaves forming an elongated cylindrical bulb which together with the leaf bases is eaten as a vegetable' is not the appropriate word to denote the context of the sentence. The word 'leak' which means 'a hole in a container or covering through which contents may accidentally pass' is the appropriate word that matches the context of the sentence and can replace the word 'leek' in the sentence.

Hence, the correct answer is option (b).
