Question

There was no means of conveyance there, so we _____ walk.

• A. must
• B. will
• C. may
• D. had to

Answer 1

Answer:

D. had to

• "There was no means of conveyance there, so we had to walk." (അവിടെ കൊണ്ടുപോകാൻ മാർഗമില്ല, അതിനാൽ ഞങ്ങൾക്ക് നടക്കേണ്ടി വന്നു).
• Must: This implies an obligation or necessity, but it is not the correct past tense form needed here.
• Will: This implies future action, which does not fit the past context of the sentence.
• May: This implies possibility or permission, but it does not indicate the necessity in the past.
• Had to: This correctly indicates a necessity or obligation (ആവശ്യകതയെ) in the past.
