In four concurring opinions, the five-member Constitution Bench (2)________________[grappled] with a question that involved, in the words of Justice D.Y. Chandrachud, “finding substance and balance in the relationship between life, morality and the experience of dying”. The outcome of the exercise is a morbid and humane verdict that lays down a broad legal framework for protecting the dignity of a terminally ill patient or one in a persistent vegetative state (PVS) with no hope of cure or recovery. For, in such circumstances, “accelerating the process of death for reducing the period of suffering constitutes a right to live with dignity”. The core message is that all adults with the (3)______________[responsibility] to give consent “have the right of self-determination and autonomy”, and the right to refuse medical treatment is also (4)_____________________[encompassed] in it. Passive euthanasia was recognised by a two-judge Bench in Aruna Shanbaug in 2011; now the Constitution Bench has expanded the jurisprudence on the subject by adding to it the principle of a ‘living will’, or an advance directive, a practice whereby a person, while in a catechized state of mind, leaves written instructions on the sort of medical treatment that may or may not be (5)________________[administered] in the event of her reaching a stage of terminal illness.

Therefore, the adjective ‘frantic’ which means conducted in a hurried, excited, and disorganized way should be replaced with ‘passive’. “passive” is an adjective which means ‘accepting or allowing what happens or what others do, without active response or resistance.’ All the other given options fail to provide coherence to the paragraph.

(a)The government’s bid to ease tensions with China

(b)has been met with some criticism

(c)particularly over a leaked memo to officials telling them

(d)to stay in from events that commemorate the 60th anniversary

(e)No error

Answer & Explanation
Ans. d

Exp. There is an error in the part (D) of the sentence, the phrasal verb “stay in” should be replaced by another phrasal verb “stay away” to make the sentence contextually correct. The phrase “stay in” means to stay in your home, which doesn’t tally the meaning of the sentence contextually. The phrase “stay away from something/somebody” means to not go near or become involved with someone; to avoid something that will have a bad effect on you. Other parts are both grammatically and contextually correct. Hence option (d) is the correct choice.

(b)is at $0.05/kWh, whereas

(c)commercial solar energy can go

(d)as low as $0.029/kWh, a significantly

(e)No error

Answer & Explanation
Ans. d

Exp. There is an error in the part (D) of the sentence, the adverb “significantly” should be replaced by an adjective “significant” to make the sentence grammatically correct. It is to be noted that the adjective “significant”, which means sufficiently great or important to be worthy of attention; noteworthy, signifies the noun “difference” given in the last part. Other parts of the sentence are both grammatically correct and contextually meaningful. Hence option (d) is the correct choice.

(b)Only (III)

(c)Only (III), (IV) and (V)

(d)Both (II) and (IV)

(e)No error

Answer & Explanation
Ans. b

Exp. There is an error in the third part of the sentence. The preposition “with” should be replaced by “between” to make the sentence grammatically correct. It is to be noted that the sentence is talking about the relationship between Nepal and India; not the relationship of another country with these nations [there is no mention of third country in the sentence]. The other parts of the sentence are grammatically correct. Hence option (b) is the correct choice.
