JKSSB SI Official Paper (Held On: 08 Dec 2022 Shift 1)

Answer 1

The correct answer is 'for'.

Key Points

The conjunction "for" is used to indicate the purpose or recipient of an action.
In this sentence, "for" shows that the key was found for the purpose of using it in the lock.
Options 1, 2, and 3 are grammatically incorrect in this context.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option 4.

Complete Sentence: "We located the key for the lock."

Additional Information

Option 1: "during" is incorrect because "during" indicates a period of time and does not fit the context of the sentence.
Option 2: "unless" is incorrect because "unless" is a conditional conjunction and does not fit the context of the sentence.
Option 3: "since" is incorrect because "since" indicates time or reason but does not fit the context of the sentence.
