We __________ our friends's birthday and we _________ how to make it up to him.
View worked solution
Answer: C
To find the correct option, let's analyze the two blanks:
- Second Blank: The phrase "just don't know" is an idiomatic expression meaning "simply do not know," which perfectly fits the context of feeling helpless about how to make up for the forgotten birthday. On the other hand, "don't just know" means "do not only know," which is semantically incorrect in this context. This eliminates options A and B.
- First Blank: In English, adverbs of degree like "completely" typically precede the main verb they modify. Therefore, "completely forgot" is the standard and most natural word order.
Combining both parts, the correct sentence is: "We completely forgot our friend's birthday and we just don't know how to make it up to him."
Hence, the correct option is C.
