Directions: A phrase is given below, followed by three sentences. Identify the statement(s) where the phrase has been used in a contextually and grammatically correct manner.

CARRIED OUT

(A) The scientific experiment was carried out under strict laboratory conditions.

(B) The sound of music carried out across the calm lake at dusk.

(C) He was carried out by his emotions and made an impulsive decision.

The correct option is Only (A).

Explanation:
The phrasal verb 'carry out' means to execute, perform, conduct, or complete a task or experiment.

Let us analyze the contextual and grammatical correctness of each sentence:

(A) "The scientific experiment was carried out under strict laboratory conditions."
This statement is correct. The phrasal verb 'carried out' is used accurately to state that the experiment was conducted.

(B) "The sound of music carried out across the calm lake at dusk."
This statement is incorrect. When describing sound reaching across a distance, the verb 'carried' or 'carried across' should be used instead of 'carried out'.

(C) "He was carried out by his emotions and made an impulsive decision."
This statement is incorrect. The appropriate phrasal verb for becoming overly excited or overcome by feelings is 'carried away' (e.g., "carried away by his emotions"), not 'carried out'.

Therefore, only statement (A) uses the phrase correctly.
