26th January is a very special day (a) for India. It is (b) on this day that
India became a Sovereign Democratic Republic (c) in 1950. Dr. Rajendra
Prasad (d) became the first President of the Indian Republic
Explanation:
- An event or day is always of great significance for someone. For is the preposition that has to be used to signify the person, place or thing linked to the special day.
- In the sentence, ' 26th January is a very special day (a) India.' for is thus the right option.
- When a particular time or date is not mentioned but the word 'day' is used as a reference the preposition used is 'on'.
- Thus for the sentence ' It is (b) this day that India became a Sovereign Democratic Republic' on is the most appropriate option.
- When a specific date, year or time is mentioned but the duration is not mentioned the preposition used is 'in'.
- Thus for the sentence ' India became a Sovereign Democratic Republic (c) 1950.' in is the most appropriate option.
- When a sentence constitutes only one main verb and is not in continuation or in reference to another time period in the same sentence the tense aspect used is 'simple present or past' and never the perfect.
- Hence for the sentence, ' Dr. Rajendra Prasad (d) the first President of the Indian Republic' the correct option is 'became' which is in the simple past tense.
