Attempted by 108 students.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Answer: set apart for
Explanation: 'Set apart for' means kept aside or reserved for someone. In the sentence, it indicates that the chairs are specifically reserved for people who are physically challenged.
set down for — Incorrect: generally means to place something down or to record it; it does not mean 'reserved for'.
set up for — Not ideal: can mean arranged or prepared for someone, but it does not clearly express the idea of reserving or keeping something aside.
set in for — Incorrect: not used to mean 'reserved for' and does not fit the intended meaning in this context.
Example: These chairs are set apart for the physically challenged.
