Choose the set of words for each blank that best fits the meaning of the sentence as a whole. If you want to ______ your lawn, you will need to water it so it stays nice and fresh.

1. rare, ignore
2. seldom, withdraw
3. perpetually, retract
4. maintain, frequently

Correct answer: maintain, frequently

Solution

The sentence means that to keep the lawn in good condition, it must be watered often. 'Maintain' fits the first blank, and 'frequently' fits the idea of regular watering. The other options do not match the context or grammar.
