double fillers Model Questions & Answers, Practice Test for ssc cgl tier 2

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 :16

The term 'rare earths' is in fact a ________ for, paradoxically, the rare-earth elements are in actuality ________, being present in low concentration in virtually all minerals.

Answer: (a)

A 'misnomer' is a misapplied or inappropriate term. 'Ubiquitous' (adj.) means existing or being everywhere. A 'disclaimer' refers to the act of disclaiming or denying a claim and a 'truism' is a self-evident obvious truth. None of the options except (b) suits both the blanks of the statement.

Question :17

Doctors and lawyers ________ that advertising will certainly ________ their profession adversely.

Answer: (a)

'Believe' is best suited for the first blank— more than 'trust' which carries the meaning of 'reliance' or 'contemplate' which means 'observe thoughtfully'. 'Damage' in option (c) is too strong a word to be used; use of 'boost' in the second blank will be contrary to the meaning conveyed by the sentence. Though 'argue' of (b) will fit the first blank, 'effect' (n.) cannot be used in the second blank.

Question :18

The ________ on some of the towns has created ________ among the residents of the other parts of the country.

Answer: (d)

Though 'attack', 'raid' and 'bombardment' will all suit the first blank, only 'panic' will suit the second blank.

Question :19

The quality of ________ between individuals and the organisation for which they work can be ________ to the benefit of both parties.

Answer: (d)

'Interaction' becomes necessary as the phrase 'between individuals and the organisation' follows.

Question :20

The ________ playing of loud music has led the angry residents of this vicinity to file a police complaint and move court against the organiser's lack of ________ for the people's need for a peaceful neighbourhood.

Answer: (d)
