Each question has a base word that is used in the options given below. Choose the option in which the usage of the word is inappropriate.
BOLT
Explanation:
Bolt in the 1st option means ‘a large roll of cloth of a definite length, especially as it comes from the loom’ and the word has been used correctly. Bolt in option 3 is similar to a latch or a fastener to secure doors and the word has been used correctly as well. In option 2, bolt means ‘to move or spring suddenly’ and has been used incorrectly. The correct version could be, ‘he bolted for the gate’ and not ‘made a bolt…’ In option 4, bolt shares a similar meaning, ‘to start suddenly and run away’ and the word has been used appropriately (bolt from…). Hence, the correct answer is option 2.
