My advice had no _ on him.
Correct answer: A. Effect
- A. Effect
- B. Affect
- C. Influence
- D. Impression
Explanation
The correct answer is Effect as it is a noun that describes a result or consequence, which is what the sentence is implying about the advice. The sentence structure 'had no _ on him' requires a noun, making 'effect' the correct choice.Affect is incorrect because it is a verb. Influence is a noun but implies a stronger impact than needed here. Impression is also a noun but refers to an opinion or feeling, which doesn't fit the context of discussing the result of advice.
