Question

Fill in the blanks with the words that best fit the meaning of the sentence as a whole.

A judge tries to his duties to the best of his .

• A. fulfill ... quality
• B. discharge ... capacity
• C. execute ... strength
• D. perform ... power

Hint:

Think of the standard idiom for doing a job with full ability.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The sentence uses a set idiomatic phrase about doing one's job well, and both blanks must fit standard collocations.

1. Option 1 (fulfill ... quality): "Fulfill duties" is acceptable, but "to the best of his quality" is not a standard English phrase.
2. Option 2 (discharge ... capacity): "Discharge his duties" is the standard formal phrase for performing official responsibilities, and "to the best of his capacity" is the correct idiom for doing something with full ability.
3. Option 3 (execute ... strength): "Execute duties" is workable, but "to the best of his strength" is not idiomatic English.
4. Option 4 (perform ... power): "Perform duties" works, but "to the best of his power" is an unusual and non-standard phrase.

The correct choice is option 2, discharge ... capacity, since both words form standard, idiomatic collocations.
