Correct Answer: (2)
Solution : The correct choice is the second option .
The word "wading" should be followed by "passing" as per the law of parallelism. Parallelism occurs when at least two parts of a sentence have the same form.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: The postman travelled by the cycle, often wading through swamps or passing through jungles, in order to reach the villages.
