This question is incomplete because the sentence is not given. Here is the complete question:
We were driving along the sea-side, suddenly we...............................petrol
came up against
kept up with
ran out of
cut down on
The correct answer is Ran out of
Explanation:
To determine the correct option to complete the sentence, the best is to analyze the context of the sentence and then determine which one is the most appropriate option. In this sentence, the speaker suggests he and other people were driving near the sea "We were driving along the sea-side", also, the speaker describes unexpectedly something important happened with the petrol. In this context, it can be inferred was completely finished. This meaning better matches the words "ran out of" that are used when some material or resource expires or is completely depleted.
