a) In spite of
b) In case of
c) In addition to
​

Answer 1

Answer:

In case of fire, ring the alarm bell.

Answer 2

The right answer that fits in this blank is option b: In case of.

• The short phrases or prepositional phrases used at the start or middle of a sentence are the alternatives here.
• When there is a fire (situation), the alarm should be rung, according to the text (action be carried out).
• Option a is wrong. The word "In spite of" is used in the sentence to emphasise that one aspect is unaffected by another.
• Option c is incorrect. "In addition to" is used to refer to additional things or extra things along with the first thing in the sentence.
• Option b is the correct answer in this case. The phrase "In case of" is used in the sentence to indicate that some action is to be undertaken in a specific situation or event.
• Therefore, option b is right.
