C. to go

D. to come

Answer: Option D

Solution (By Examveda Team)

To arrive means to reach a place, especially after traveling or journeying.

Option A: to see is incorrect. 'To see' means to perceive with the eyes.

Option B: to arrest is incorrect. 'To arrest' means to seize someone by legal authority.

Option C: to go is partially correct. While 'to go' implies movement, it doesn't specify reaching a destination. 'To arrive' implies the completion of a journey.

Option D: to come is also partially correct, similar to 'to go'. However, 'to come' usually suggests movement towards the speaker or a specific point of reference, while 'to arrive' is more general. 'To arrive' is the more precise and complete answer.

Therefore, the best answer is Option D: to come, although it is not as precise as it could be. However, considering the other options, Option D is the closest synonym. 'To arrive' implies a successful completion of travel to a specific location.
