2. He broke __________ completely on hearing of his daughter's death.

3. You can't go back ______________ your promise now, we are depending on you.

4. The situation is difficult and calls ___________ great tact.

My Answers:

1. off

2. out

3. without

4. in

Well, please check this. If I am grammatically wrong, say "wrong, (your answer)"! If I am grammatically right but there is another suitable alternative say "right but more appropriate is (your answer)". If I am right, just say right Emotion: big smile

Thanks in advance!
