  2. BA-E
  3. CA-D
  4. DB-F
  5. ENone of these

Answer: A. A-F

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 'A-F'. Key Points: When the mayor learned his son was killed by a drug dealer, he started a crusade to rid his city of illegal drugs. After the verb 'Conduct' we need to write an object after it. Hence, 'A belated investigation' is a noun phrase hence it can be an object of the sentence. So the correct combination is 'A-F': Because of advances in DNA testing, the police can now conduct a belated investigation into the unsolved murder.
