Question : 36

Authorities in Delhi are gearing up to _________ a ‘critical pollution period’, which is likely to start sometime in next week.

a) Arrange

b) Dislocate

c) Create

d) Tackle

e) Uncover

Discuss »

Answer: (d)

Meaning of words: Dislocate - disturb the normal position, Tackle - Make determined efforts to deal with something.

A “critical pollution period” can’t be arranged, dislocated, created and uncovered. “Tackle” meaning to deal with Pollution makes perfect sense.

Question : 39

The motor company has been the leader in hybrid and plug-in hybrid power trains but has ____________rivals in developing electrical vehicles.

a) Leveraging

b) Lagged

c) Lagging

d) Averted

e) Advent

Discuss »

Answer: (b)

Meaning: Leveraging - use something to maximum advantage, Lagged - to fall/remain behind, Averted - prevented, Advent - the arrival of a person or thing

The sentence being in perfect tense, “has” which is just before the blank, requires a verb in its 3rd form. With this, putting “Leveraging, Lagging and Advent” in the sentence will make it grammatically incorrect. The sentence has “but” conjunction in the sentence which makes the clauses of the sentence in contrast.

With the first clause showing positive sense about the company to be leader, the second clause would definitely require a verb that shows contrast to being leader. For this, we find that “Lagged” which means remaining behind fits to fill the blank.

Question : 40

Onions grow in ________ in this part and hence they are always very cheap here.

a) demand

b) abundance

c) peak

d) excessive

e) dearth

Discuss »

Answer: (b)
