Correct Answer :

Option C

(1-5)

Solution :

The correct answer is (1-5).


Step-by-step Explanation:

To solve this matching problem, we need to analyze the phrases given in Column (A) and Column (B) to identify which pair combines logically and grammatically to form a complete, meaningful sentence.


1. Analyzing Pair (1) and (5):

Column (A) phrase (1): "Although he wasn’t a professional cyclist"

Column (B) phrase (5): "the man thoroughly enjoyed riding bicycles"

Combined Sentence: "Although he wasn’t a professional cyclist, the man thoroughly enjoyed riding bicycles."

Logical & Grammatical Evaluation: The conjunction "Although" introduces a contrast clause. It makes perfect sense to contrast his lack of professional status as a cyclist with his deep enjoyment of riding bicycles. This forms a complete, coherent, and grammatically correct sentence.


2. Evaluating Other Options for Verification:

Pair (2-4): "The mechanics tried to align the front end willingness to contravene prison rules" – This combination is grammatically incorrect and contextually incoherent.

Pair (3-6): "My father will never skip a dentist appointment of the events organized in my mind" – This combination does not make logical or grammatical sense.

Pair (1-4): "Although he wasn’t a professional cyclist willingness to contravene prison rules" – This lacks proper grammatical structure and logical connection.


Therefore, the only correct and meaningful pair is (1-5).
