Q. In the sentence given below a part is underlined. Choose the most suitable option that can replace the underlined part.
There is less need to prepare a presentation, as the clients will not be coming today.- Published on 10 Mar 16a. hardly any
b. no
c. very little
d. somewhat
ANSWER: hardly any
Less need = hardly any. No need would imply no requirement while very little has a positive meaning and the sentence does not. Somewhat is not right because it does not match the usage in the sentence.
