Directions:

The following question has two blanks, each blank indicating that something has been omitted. Choose the set of words for each blank that best fits in the context of the sentence.

Question :11

Delayed monsoons, preceded by a _________ monsoon last year, and depleting groundwater levels have _________ the crisis.

Answer: (d)

The sentence talks about reducing groundwater levels due to less rainfall for two consecutive years. In the context of the sentence, the only possible word that can fit the first blank is either "deficient" or "poor". This eliminates the options C, A and B.

For the second blank, a word that talks about worsening the crisis would be most appropriate. Only the word "exacerbated" meaning 'aggravated or intensified' correctly describes the situation of "the crisis".

Option D is hence the correct answer.

Question :12

Short-term credit from NBFCs, frequently _________ over, stands in for missing long-term capital and a disruption in the cycle results in a crisis for both the financing companies and the builders _________ on them for capital.

Answer: (e)

The sentence means to convey that short term loans from NBFCs whose due dates are frequently extended act as replacement for missing long term capital and a break in this cycle would be a disaster for both the financing companies as well as the builders who are dependent on them for capital.

In the context of the sentence, the only combination of words that lead to a meaningful sentence is "rolled" and "reliant". All other options are incorrect either contextually or grammatically. Therefore, options A, B, C and D are eliminated.

To "roll over" a loan means to extend the loan's due date by paying an additional fee. Loan roll over is most common with short-term payday and title loans.

Option E is hence the correct answer.

Question :13

State governments have simply not given rules the necessary momentum, and the producers of plastic articles that are _________ used just for a few minutes have shown little _________ about their negative environmental impact.

Answer: (c)

The word "used" after the first blank indicates that it is regarding the nature of use of the plastic articles. In the context of the sentence, the words which are suitable for the first blank are "regularly", "invariably" and "habitually". Hence options B and E are eliminated.

The second blank is regarding the "negative environmental impact" of the plastic bag. The only word that makes the sentence meaningfully correct is "concern" indicating that the producers are hardly worried about the impact of plastic. The words "assistance" and "support" are irrelevant to the context of this sentence. This eliminates options A and D as well.

Option C is hence the correct answer.

Question :14

While all these forms exist in India, _________ and _________ content are gaining steam, leading to the possibility of potential violence and impacting society.

Answer: (d)

The blanks refer to the type of content that is spreading rapidly and is "leading to the possibility of potential violence". This indicates that the adjectives describing this type of content must be strongly negative.

In the context of the sentence, the only combination of words that lead to a meaningful sentence is "fabricated" and "manipulated". All other combinations are incorrect either contextually or grammatically as both the words need to be strongly negative.

Option D is hence the correct answer.

Question :15

While predatory journals are not a uniquely Indian problem, the problem appears to be more grave here, and has possibly been aggravated by the UGC's policy of _________ recommendations for _________ of journals in its approved list.

Answer: (e)

From the given sentence, we can infer that the problem has been made worse by UGC's policy of asking for recommendations. In the context of the sentence, the words that are suitable for the first blank are "seeking" and "soliciting". Hence options A, B and C are eliminated.

For the second blank, we can infer that the aforementioned recommendations were sought for the addition of journals in the whitelist. The only word that aptly conveys this meaning is "inclusion". The word "exclusion" means the opposite and this eliminates options D as well.

Option E is hence the correct answer.
