    Choose the best answer:
    You can borrow my car, but please ____ good care of it. 
    Solution
    Option A: 'Make' means 'to form something'. The word isn't relevant to the sentence. 'Make good care' has no coherent meaning.
    Option B: 'Do' means 'to perform an action', the meaning of 'please do good care of it' is also not clear.
    Option D: Similarly, 'have good care' does not have a clear meaning.
    Hence options A, B and D are incorrect.
    Option C: The verb 'take' forms a phrasal verb with 'good care of'.
    Phrasal verbs are verbs that combine with other elements to form a different meaning than the original one.
    'Take good care of' means 'to look after something or someone'. It's the most suitable option as it completes the meaning of the sentence: 'You can borrow,... but please look after it.'
