1 .	DIRECTIONS (Qs.1-3) : Look at the underlined part of each sentence. Below each sentence, three possible substitutions for the underlined part are given. If one of them (i.e.,) (a), (b) or (c) is better than the underlined part, indicate your response on the Answer Sheet against the corresponding letter (a), (b) or (c). If none of the substitutions improves the sentence, indicate (d) as your response on the Answer Sheet. Thus a ‘No improvement’ response will be signified by the letter (d). I cannot listen whatshe is saying.
[ A ]    hear what [ B ]    listen for what [ C ]    listen to that [ D ]    No improvement
Answer : Option A Explanation : I cannot hear what she is saying. To hear is to physically experience the sense of sound. As long as one's ear and brain are capable of processing sound waves, one can hear. To listen is to deliberately apply the ability to hear. One who listens is thinking about what is heard, what it means, how to respond, and whether to continue to listen / pay attention.
