Directions:

In each of the sentences given in these questions, there are two blanks indicating that something has been omitted. There are five alternatives given. Choose the one that best fits the meaning of the sentence as a whole.

Question :6

Most people are too ________ in their own lives to ________ much about the agonies of others.

Answer: (c)

Question :7

Part of the confusion in our societies ________ from our pursuit of efficiency and economic growth, in the ________ that these are the necessary ingredients of progress.

Answer: (c)

Question :8

Several plots ________ ________ in various television episodes.

Answer: (d)

In the first blank, only 'occur' will fit. 'Repeatedly' means 'again and again'; this word will suit the second blank much more than 'frequently' (many times) or 'concurrently' (existing simultaneously side-by-side). 'Consequently' means something different; it means 'as a result' or 'therefore'.

Question :9

By ________ of their athletic activities, a few sportsmen are able to escape the pressures that living in ________ can create.

Answer: (b)

Question :10

She conducted the interrogation not only with dispatch but with ________, being a person who is ________ in manner yet subtle in discrimination.

Answer: (c)

'Elan' means 'vivacity' or 'animation'. Though 'finesse' and 'zeal' in options (d) and (b) will suit the first blank of the statement, 'expeditious' ('characterised by promptness' or 'quick') and 'doctrinaire' (adj.) (dogmatic about one's ideas) will not suit the second blank. So option (c) is the answer.
