single fillers Model Questions & Answers, Practice Test for ibps clerk mains

Directions:

Pick out the most effective word or group of words from the given options to fill in the blank and make the sentence meaningfully complete.

Question :1

Uneducated people are often forced to accept the ________________ of others.

Answer: (d)

'Dictates' (n.) means 'authoritative commands'. It is different from 'diktats', meaning 'harsh decrees imposed unilaterally especially on a defeated nation'.

Question :2

The new thinking among the young is an ________________ of the larger movement for individualism and progress.

Answer: (a)

An 'offshoot' (n.) is anything conceived of as springing or proceeding from a main stock. 'Outshoot' (n.) is an act of shooting out; as a verb, it means 'shooting forth' or 'projecting'. 'Overshoot' (v.) is to shoot beyond or above so as to miss. 'Onshoot', as a single word, however, is never used ('on shoot', as two words, means 'on an assignment or session of film or commercial shooting').

Question :3

His ________________ attitude cost him his fine job.

Answer: (a)

'Indolent' means 'showing a disposition to avoid exertion' or 'to be slothful'. We do not refer to 'attitude' as being 'inactive'. 'Slow' and 'benign' can apply to the sentence but the best suited word is 'indolent'.

Question :4

Desperation is a lamentable ________ courage.

Answer: (b)

The sentence means that courage 'turns' into desperation which is a regrettable aspect. So 'substitute for' ('in place of'), 'replacement with' and 'standby for' ('use of a substitute for') will not be applicable here.

Question :5

Rama has a high sense of ________________ and will never behave indecently in public simply in order to catch attention.

Answer: (d)

'Integrity' means 'soundness of moral character', 'uncompromising adherence to moral and ethical principles'. 'Individuality' is the particular character or the aggregate of qualities that distinguish one from others.
