Read the following statement carefully.
___________like a fake can be a sign of___________, and clinging too tightly to what feels like one’s authentic self can ________that growth.
Fill in the blanks meaningfully, in the above statement, from the following options.
Option B is the best fit for the blanks in the sentence based purely on grammatical and logical sense.
Feeling like a fake can be a sign of growth, and clinging too tightly to what feels like one’s authentic self can hinder that growth. This statement suggests that sometimes, feeling out of place or like you’re not being true to yourself can actually be a sign that you’re growing and evolving. However, if you cling too tightly to your current sense of self, it could prevent you from embracing that growth.
This option fills in the blanks while maintaining the sentence’s grammatical structure and logical coherence.
Option C may seem like a good fit at first glance. From a grammatical and idiomatic perspective, the phrase “behaving like a fake” is not a common idiom or phrase, and it doesn’t quite convey a clear meaning. Also, the second part of the sentence suggests that clinging to one’s authentic self can “support” growth. However, in the context of the sentence, this seems contradictory. If behaving like a fake is a sign of improvement, then clinging to one’s authentic self would more likely hinder than support this improvement.
The alternative choices, which involve actions such as acting, performing, or operating like a fake, lack idiomatic coherence. Furthermore, they suggest ideas that either contradict each other or don’t fit the context of personal growth.
Read the following statement carefully and fill up the blanks from the given options.
As _________evolved and eventually moved to cities, close proximity ____________how we viewed and assessed each_________.
Option B is the correct answer.
Option B, “generations, changed, other,” is correct because it fits grammatically and contextually into the sentence. The term “generations” refers to people over time, “changed” indicates a transformation or evolution in perception or behaviour, and “other” refers to other individuals. So, the sentence “As generations evolved and eventually moved to cities, close proximity changed how we viewed and assessed each other” makes sense both grammatically and idiomatically.
Option A “civilization, enhanced, situation” is incorrect because “enhanced” implies improvement or augmentation, which doesn’t necessarily follow from the close proximity of civilization. Also, “situation” is too vague in this context.
Option C, “culture, helped, life,” is incorrect because “helped” implies assistance or facilitation, which is not necessarily a result of cultural evolution or urban migration. Also, “life” is too broad and doesn’t fit well in this context.
Option D, “lives, destroyed, culture”, is incorrect because “destroyed” implies a negative impact or destruction, which is not necessarily a result of the evolution of lives. Also, “culture” doesn’t fit well in the context of assessing each other.
Option E, “people, helped, the nation”, is incorrect because while “people” could fit in the first blank, “helped” doesn’t necessarily follow from people moving to cities. Also, “nation” doesn’t fit well in the context of assessing each other.
Fill up the blanks with appropriate words.
Oil painting did to appearance what capital did to social____________. It reduced everything to the __________of objects. Everything became __________because everything became a commodity. All reality was mechanically__________ by its materiality
Option B is the correct answer because it accurately fills the blanks with terms that align with the context and convey the intended meaning. The sentence draws a parallel between the impact of oil painting on appearance and the impact of capital on social relations.The term "relations" aptly describes the complexity of social connections, while "exchangeability" aligns with the idea that both oil painting and capital reduce diverse elements to a commercial, commodified form. "Measured" effectively concludes the sentence, emphasizing the mechanistic quantification of reality based on its material aspects. This option provides a coherent and contextually fitting completion.
Read the following statement:
While start-ups have__________ reach, _____ they introduce ________ products, they open-up ________ markets.
Fill in the blanks meaningfully, in the above statement, from the following options.
We can see that the last two words are "new and "innovative" in some order.
It would make more sense to say that they introduce innovative products and open up new markets, than the other way around.
Narrowing us down to options B and D.
Option B has "while they introduce", implying a contradiction down the line, which never comes in the sentence, eliminating the option.
This leaves us with option D, which says that while start-ups have limited reach when they introduce innovative products, they open up new markets. Making a coherent sentence.
Therefore, Option D is the correct answer.
Carefully read the paragraph below:
__________, medicine has been operated by trial and error, in other words, __________. We know by now that there can be entirely_________ connections between symptoms and treatment, and some medications succeed in medical trials for mere random reasons.
From the options below, choose the one that MOST appropriately fills up the blanks.
The first blank requires a word that refers to the events of the past; the best-suited word is "historically".
In the second blank, we need a word that goes with the idea of random choices; here, both "random" and "arbitrarily" are well suited.
The third blank requires a word that means by chance or luck, "fortuitous" is the best fit here.
Hence the correct choice is E.
Please study the paragraph given below:
In 1942, the French writer Albert Camus composed an essay, ‘The Myth of Sisyphus’. It draws on the Greek fable of a man condemned to roll a rock up a mountain only to have it roll back down under its own weight, a ______ that lasts for eternity. Camus argues that this image ______ the human condition in a world where we can no longer make sense of events; but instead of committing suicide, we should ______ ourselves to this ‘elusive feeling of absurdity’ and bear it as best we can. In this sense, Sisyphus is the ideal hero.
Consider the following words:
1. surrender
2. choice
3. symbolises
4. quandary
5. attune
6. option
7. reconcile
8. depicts
Which of the following options is the most appropriate sequence that best fits the blanks in the above paragraph?
In the first blank we are looking for a word that signifies a dilemma, quandary(4) is a word that goes well here as it means "state of perplexity or uncertainty over what to do in a difficult situation".
The second blank requires a word that goes with the essence of depicting an image, symbolizes(3) is the perfect fit for this blank as there is no option which has the word depict(8) in it.
The third blank requires a word that means to accept or come to terms with something, while attune(5) is a good choice, reconcile(7) is the best choice and is also available in the options.
Hence the answer is 437.
Which option does not reflect the relationship implicit in ‘Emendation : Editor’?
Emendation is defined as the process of revising or correcting a text; this is done by the editor of a publication or any other institution or organisation.
The relationship between the two words is can be described as the following:
Job the person does: Profession of the person
A judge issues an injunction, a judicial warning or order. A doctor examines his patient. A coach disciplines his students. A saint follows renunciation. The odd one is the usher who shows people their seats in a cinema theatre. An usher is a person who is asked to welcome guests at an event, so he is not related to illumination.
Hence, D is the correct answer.
Study the first sentence and then identify from among the options given the closest antonym of the highlighted word in the second sentence:
It’s conventional wisdom that procreation between first cousins is unhealthy. But what are the actual genetic risks?
The highlighted word is conventional which here means common knowledge, known by all. The perfect antonym would be unfounded which means having no foundation or not based on truth.
Carefully read the following paragraph:
Who could resist the idea of remembering everything they wanted to, without trying? Learning would be made easy, exams a ______ and you would never forget where you left your keys. And memory-related disorders like Alzheimer’s would have met their match. So, it is of little surprise that scientists have turned their attention to ways of ______ human memory using techniques that ______, supplement or even mimic parts of the brain. The immediate goal is to treat memory disorders, but the idea of a memory ______ for everyday life is gaining ground.
Fill in the blanks in the above paragraph, with the best option from among the following:
The first blank requires a word that conveys the idea of something which is easy to do. Joy is a word that conveys the expression, but we have a better choice which is a breeze (a thing that is easy to accomplish). Hence we have eliminated Options A B and D.
The second blank requires a word that goes with the idea of increasing or improving, enhancing is a perfect fit.
So we can conclude that the correct option is C as the other two words stimulate (encourage or increase activity) and prosthesis (artificially created or modified body part) match for the respective blanks.
Which of the following options best captures the relationship similar to INSPECT : VIVISECT?
'Inspect' means to examine something carefully, while 'Vivisect' means to dissect or cut open a living organism for scientific examination - it's a much more invasive, intensive form of inspection.
Option A: Observing is not necessarily a more intensive form of enquiring; these are different activities.
Option B: Exploring isn't a more intensive version of inquiring
Option C: Investigating means to examine systematically, while interrogation is a more intensive, direct questioning of a person. This shows progression from a general examination to a more intensive, targeted approach. This option best captures the relationship.
Option D: A query is a question, while a survey is a broader collection of information, not a more intensive version.These are opposite actions, not varying intensities of the same action
Option E: These are opposite actions, not varying intensities of the same action.
Therefore, Option C is the correct answer.

An infinite land of day.
Which of the following would best capture the ESSENCE of the poem above?
The author wants to convey that if we search our inner self, we can find the truth and reality. Using the analogy of oceans and his own heart, he has reiterated this point. Option C concurs with this.

'Eminent' means a famous and respected person within a particular sphere.
'Eminence' is the noun for 'eminent'.
'Imminent' means the state or fact of being about to happen.
'Immanent, means inherent.
By looking at the given sentence, we can see that the first blank should have 'eminent' because it is used as an adjective for a person. Also, the second blank should have 'immanent' as it is defining justice. Similarly, as per the context, the third and the fourth blank should have 'imminent' and 'eminence' respectively.
Hence, option C is the correct answer.
Which of the following is not a term of ‘disapproval’?
infantile - immature, childish
charlatan - who pretend to have expert knowledge or skill
imbecile - stupid person, fool
awful - bad, unpleasant
childlike - quality of innocence

The defense proposes to show that the incident that the prosecution so _____________ rejects as _______ did indeed take place.
Option B is the correct answer.
"Cavalierly"< text> means in a dismissive or nonchalant manner, which aligns with the idea of the prosecution rejecting the incident with indifference. "Apocryphal" refers to something of doubtful authenticity, which fits the context of the prosecution dismissing the incident as something that is not believed to be true.
Option A: "Blithely" is too casual and doesn’t fit the strong rejection. "Undesirable" doesn’t capture rejecting something as false.
Option C: "Vehemently" works, but "factual" contradicts the rejection of the incident as false.
Option D: "Persuasively" doesn’t fit the prosecution’s rejection, and "pointless" doesn’t match the context.
Option E: "Convincingly" suits the defense, not the prosecution; "inevitable" doesn’t fit with rejection.
Fill in the blanks with the most appropriate option that follows:
Not just the absence of ____________ , but also the presence of ____________ and honesty is required to bind up the nation’s wound.
From the given context, we can infer that the first blank is filled with a negative word. Religion in second blank is not in line with the given context. Therefore, options B, C and D are eliminated.
Option B: Retribution means punishment, which isn’t about healing the nation's wounds. Camaraderie refers to friendship, but the sentence is looking for something deeper, like insight (understanding) to heal.
Option E: This is the appropriate answer. "Recrimination" refers to mutual accusations or blame, which should be absent for healing, while "insight" refers to understanding or wisdom, which would help mend the nation's wounds.

Clinical practitioners ___________ integrated mindfulness _____________ treatment of ________ host of emotional and behavioural disorders, ________ borderline personality disorder, major depression, chronic pain, or eating disorders. Number of such practitioners _________ increased substantially.
In the given sentence, treatment should be preceded by 'the' as we are talking about particular treatment for given disorders. Therefore, options C and D are eliminated. In the given sentence, number of such practitioners is followed by a singular verb, i.e. has is used instead of have.
The use of "have" in the first blank is appropriate because "Clinical practitioners" is a plural subject, and the present perfect tense ("have integrated") indicates an action that started in the past and continues to be relevant in the present.
The answer is option A.
Fill in the blanks with the most appropriate option that follows:
Ontologies are _____________ equated with taxonomic hierarchies of classes, class definitions, and _______ subsumption relation, _____________ ontologies need not be limited to _____________ forms.

The answer is option E.
It _____________ not look like a great deal today, but back then it was a coup: no man before ___________ to import tea directly into Ireland. The option that will best fill the blanks in the
above sentences would be:
From the narrative, it is clear that the act of importing tea into Ireland is an event of the past and that perhaps doing so today is not a "big deal". This means that the act of importing tea should be spoken of in the past perfect tense as we are referring to a past event (of importing tea directly) when standing at a point which itself is a point of past from today's perspective (the point when it was considered a coup). Hence, "had dared" is the most apt for the second blank and hence, B should be the answer.
The sequence of events has to be understood like this: daring to import tea ---> being considered as a coup ----> not a big deal today.
The head ___________ was annoyed to see a _________ in the soup.
The option that would best fill the blanks in the above sentence would be:

Which word is the opposite of the word
