The correct answer is Option (1) i.e. quite expensive and
Key Points
-
Option B can be eliminated because 'too' must be followed by an infinitive (to + verb1) which is not the case here.
-
Option C gets eliminated too because 'so' must be followed by 'that' which is again not the case here.
-
Option D gets eliminated because no comparison is made in the sentence and it gets confirmed by the absence of the preposition 'than' in the sentence.
-
However, option A replaces the bold part appropriately and thus becomes the best replacement among all.
-
Hence, option A is correct.
Correct sentence: Covid treatment in this hospital is quite expensive and they had to sell off their land to pay for it.
