Question
My sincere advice to him is in pursuit of his education instead of taking up a job.
Options:
A .  in pursuing
B .  to pursue his
C .  in the pursuit of his
D .  to pursuit in his
E .  No correction required
Answer: Option C
Answer: (c)‘Pursue’ and ‘pursuit’ are two different words. ‘Pursue’ is a verb while ‘pursuit’ is a noun. ‘Pursuit’ cannot be replaced by ‘pursue’. For this reason, options (a) and (c) are ruled out. Moreover when we do something to get something we say ‘in pursuit of’. Hence the correct option is (b).
