The correct answer is Option 2) i.e. B.

clipboardExplanation:

  • ​The verbs given below have the same present, past, and past participle forms:
    •  bid, cut, hurt, put, broadcast, shed, quit, spread, etc.
  • For example:
    • ​I have quitted smoking.false (2)
    • ​I have quit smoking.right (1)
  • According to the rule and the example given above, 'broadcast' will be used instead of 'broadcasted' in the 2nd part of the sentence.

Correct Sentence: She is to host a new half-hour show which will be broadcast every weekday evening.

  

  • ​​​Though 'broadcasted' is used in slangs but this term is grammatically incorrect. 
  • Hence this point must be kept in mind while attempting these kinds of questions.
