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

Though he is reputed for his technical ________, his books were sadly a ________ of the work of others as he lacked originality.

Answer: (b)

Though 'skill' and 'knowledge' too will fit the first blank, only 'derivative' will suit the second blank (note that the words for the second blanks in all the other options will need 'an' to go before them).

Question :7

The changes made in the system were so ________ that they didn't require any ________ .

Answer: (d)

Question :8

Shalini was not ________ by the criticism and paid no ________ even when her best friend talked against her.

Answer: (b)

'Deterred' means 'held back' or 'discouraged from doing something'. To 'heed' is to 'give careful attention to'. Option (a) would seem to suit the blanks but 'deterred' is better suited to the first blank than the word 'bothered'—'troubled about' or 'worried'.

Question :9

I would like to ________ your attention to the second paragraph of my letter ________ to the terms of sale of the machinery.

Answer: (b)

It is to be noted that the word 'focus' will suit the first blank but 'connecting' would not fit the second blank (e). In option (b), 'withdraw' and 'regarding' would not fit the blanks ('regarding' should not be followed by 'to'). In (a), 'invite' is not very suitable for the first blank and 'according' is incorrect in the second blank.

Question :10

The great scientist ________ himself with ability and moderation all ________ the conference.

Answer: (b)
