options
i.Across
ii.Besides
iii.Beside
iv.Both ​

Answer 1

Answer:

our sir teaches mathematics besides english

Answer 2

Option ii. Besides is the correct answer.

Explanation:

• We have to choose the correct answer from the given options to form a meaningful sentence.
• Option i. 'Across' is incorrect. It is because the meaning of the sentence is: our sir teaches both Mathematics and English. 'Across' means from one side to another. Therefore it makes no sense.
• Option ii. 'Besides' is correct answer. 'Besides' means 'apart from' or 'in addition to'. Therefore the meaning of the sentence is: Our sir teaches Mathematics besides (apart from) English.
• Option iii. 'Beside' means 'next to the side of'. We can say : I sat beside her. But it does not carry meaning to the given sentence.
• Option iv. 'Both' is also wrong because the blank is given after 'Mathematics'. If it is before the word 'Mathematics' then only we can use it.
