[amp_mcq option1=”contrasted with” option2=”contrasted at” option3=”contrasted against” option4=”No improvement” correct=”option1″]<\/p>\n

The correct answer is (A).<\/p>\n

The word “contrast” means to compare two things in order to show their differences. In this case, the two things being compared are the way of life of an educated man and the way of life of an illiterate person. The word “contrasted with” is the most idiomatic way to express this comparison.<\/p>\n

The word “contrasted at” is not idiomatic. It suggests that the two things being compared are in conflict with each other, which is not the case in this situation.<\/p>\n

The word “contrasted against” is also not idiomatic. It suggests that the two things being compared are in opposition to each other, which is not the case in this situation.<\/p>\n

The word “No improvement” is incorrect because the sentence is already grammatically correct.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
