Answer (1)
To complete the sentence, we need to find a word that starts with the letter 'b' and fits the context provided in the sentence:
'Tourists go in their thousands to Greece every summer, many of them to sunbathe on the sandy b______.'
The clue here is that tourists go to Greece to sunbathe on something sandy. The word that best completes this sentence is 'beaches.'
Context : The sentence is discussing tourists in Greece, known for its beautiful beaches, so this fits well with the idea of sandy areas suitable for sunbathing.
Logical Fit : 'Beaches' is an appropriate word when talking about a place where people sunbathe.
Grammar : The plural form 'beaches' is used here because 'many of them' refers to numerous beaches in Greece.
Understanding the context and meaning of the sentence helps us deduce that the missing word is 'beaches.'
So, the complete sentence is: 'Tourists go in their thousands to Greece every summer, many of them to sunbathe on the sandy beaches.'
This sentence gives a clear picture of why Greece is a popular destination in summer.
