Select the option that best explain the information conveyed in the sentence?
If he were here, it could be more fun.

  • A.
    He did not show up and so the occasion lacked much fun
  • B.
    He was being expected to supply more fun
  • C.
    There was not fun because he was not present
  • D.
    He was expected but did not show up to liven up the occasion
Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation

If he were here, it could be more fun

This statement was referring to a third singular person. This means that, the event was fun. But the fun could have been more if that person was present.

”It could” as used in the statement is a probability. There is no assurance that the presence of that particular person would bring more fun. 

Option A is the correct option. 

He did not show up and so the occasion lacked much fun

 Meaning there was fun, but it wasn’t much fun because he wasn’t present.
