Correct answer: A. He put across his point very clearly.
- A. He put across his point very clearly.
- B. He put over his point very clearly.
- C. He put on his point very clearly.
- D. He put into his point very clearly.
Explanation
The correct answer is Option A: He put across his point very clearly. The phrase 'put across' is a common phrasal verb that means to convey or communicate an idea effectively. The other options are incorrect for the following reasons: Option B ('put over') is less common in this context and may not be as clear to all listeners. Option C ('put on') implies a performance rather than communication, which is not suitable here. Option D ('put into') lacks clarity and is not recognized as a standard expression for conveying an argument or message.
