Q:

Improve the given sentence if necessary.

Decide one way or the other; you can’t be sitting on the fence forever.

A) be seated on the fence B) be sitting and fencing
C) be dancing on the fence D) No improvement
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) No improvement

Explanation:

‘Sitting on the fence’ is the correct idiom used. It is used to describe a person’s lack of decisiveness, neutrality or hesitance to choose between two sides in an argument or a competition, or inability to decide due to lack of courage. Thus, the sentence is grammatically and contextually correct. Thus, the correct formation would be, ‘Decide one way or the other; you can’t be sitting on the fence forever’.
