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 :11

The History professor ________ a great respect from his students by virtue of his mastery over his subject.

Question :12

One of the most common causes of ________ is the habit of quitting when one is overtaken by temporary defeat.

Question :13

Integrity of character, honesty, dependability and discipline ________ with a genuine interest in your work will go a long way in achieving success.

Answer: (a)

'Coupled' means 'combined with' or 'connected with'. But 'adjoined' means 'close to' or 'in contact with' and 'attached' is 'joined' or 'bound with'. As the reference here is to abstract qualities, 'coupled' will suit the blank best.
