Directions to Solve
Find the word that names a necessary part of the underlined word.
9.
orchestra
Answer: Option
Explanation:
An orchestra is a large group of musicians, so musicians are essential. Although many orchestras have violin sections, violins aren't essential to an orchestra (choice a). Neither a stage (choice b) nor a soloist (choice d) is necessary.

Here's a typical definition of the term ORCHESTRA:
An orchestra is a large instrumental ensemble used in classical music that contains sections of string (violin, viola, cello and double bass), brass, woodwind, and percussion instruments.
"Instruments" being the key word here.
If one have to find "the word that names a necessary part of the underlined word 'Orchestra', one cannot be wrong regarding the concept of "Orchestra" as described above. Hence "violin" seems to fit the requirement perfectly.
It's a GRAY AREA. I would suggest revising of the question to eliminate any potentiality of an alternative answer which might be also LOGICALLY correct, as it seems to be the case here.

I think as an orchestra is held before a large audience so there has to be a stage for it, so it is as well essential.

Even it is done not on a stage, still we call it as orchestra.
