a) Visiting
b) Attention
c) Duty

Question : 2
When the elephants saw so much water in the lake, they ___________.
a) Happy
b) Rejoiced
c) Declined
d) Sentenced
e) Awaited
Answer »Answer: (b)
Since the sentence talks about an incident that occurred in the past, the word in the blank must be in the past tense.
This eliminates option A. Among the other options, "rejoiced" (feel or show great joy or delight) is the best fit.

a) Although
b) Except
c) Because
d) So
e) Notwithstanding
Answer »Answer: (b)
None of the conjunctions but "except" fit in the passage.

Question : 4
The local goons tried to ___________ him into retracting his complain.
a) Scare
b) Stalls
c) Rendered
d) Forcing
e) Destroyed
Answer »Answer: (a)
To retract means to withdraw a statement or accusation.
The word "goon" is used to refer to a violent criminal who is paid to work for the blank. The infinitive "to" should be followed by the base form of the verb.
Hence, options D and E can be eliminated. "Goons" is a plural subject, thus, a singular verb "stalls" cannot be used. "Render" is incorrect in the given context.
Thus, option A is the correct answer.
