Directions(1-10): The following question carries two sentences with one blank in each, followed by five alternatives, are given. Choose that option as the answer which can fill both the blanks of both the sentences.
- A) To __________ the significance of a promise, you must take note of the circumstances under which it was written.
B) The house was a good investment, as its value was sure to __________ over the years.ComprehendRegardAppreciateRiseAcknowledgeOption C
The first sentence talks about the significance of a promise. The word in the blank must state the action that will be performed on the significance of the promise. All the words except “rise” will fit the blank as the construction “to rise” is incorrect here. You “raise” the significance and not “rise” it.
With reference to the second blank, a good investment like a house will definitely enhance the value of the same in future. Thus, “appreciate”, which means increase is the correct word for the blank. The word will also fit correctly in the first sentence. - A) There are hundreds of children around the country who will be adversely affected by this __________.
B) The life of the __________ class has been comfortable and luxurious since ancient ages.JudgementRulingAristocraticWealthyEliteOption B
We need a noun in the first blank as “this” is the adjective here, which would modify the noun in the blank. In the second blank, we require an “adjective” that would modify the noun “class”. Both A and B can fit in the first blank, but only B, C, D and E will fit in the second blank. Since only “ruling” would fit in both of them, option B is the correct answer. - A) He wasn’t involved in anything illegal and you have no _________ to be concerned about spending any of the money he acquired.
B) The case against __________ and rationality will be presented in the form of arguments that give reasons for these beliefs.EvidencesReasonRationalPragmatismUnderstandingOption B
“Evidences”, the plural word will not fill wither of the blanks. In the first one, the plural will not fit as “no”, “any”, etc. do not take a plural noun after them. In the second blank, the plural subject will break the rule of parallelism as “rationality is in the plural form.
“Rational” is an adjective and cannot be placed in either of the blanks as both of them do not have a noun to modify. Options D and E will not fit in the first blank. “Reason” fits appropriately in both the blanks, thus, option B is the correct answer. - A) The clinical __________ was supposed to establish whether the new replacements were working.
B) The newspaper accounts of the __________ were not detailed.MalaiseTrialTributeImmaculateNone of the aboveOption B
In the first blank, we need a noun to be modified by the adjective ‘clinical’. This eliminates the adjective “immaculate” (clean).
“Malaise” which means unhappiness or restlessness will not make sense in the first blank. “Tribute” will not fit in either of the blanks. “Trial” fits appropriately in both the blanks. Thus, option B is the correct answer. - I. Because the police were waiting for him to try and sell the diamond, the jewel thief had no idea his __________ behaviour had been discovered.
II. The king took it upon himself to personally execute the __________ soldier who led the enemy into the castle.GarrulousPerfidiousGregariousLoquaciousTenaciousOption B
The sentence I implies that the jewel had no idea that his deceitful behaviour was discovered when the police were waiting for him to try and sell the diamond.
The sentence II implies that the king took the responsibility to carry out the legal action against the dishonest soldier who led the enemy into the castle.
Out of the given options, perfidious means ‘deceitful and untrustworthy’.
Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
