meaning to the sentence. Thus, the two expressions that can replace the

existing phrase are A and C. Both these expressions follow the correct

 

grammar structure and make the sentence contextually correct and

meaningful. The phrase “in terms of” means with regard to the

particular aspect or subject specified. Hence option (a) is the correct

choice.

the existing phrase are B and D. Both these expressions follow the

correct grammar structure and make the sentence meaningful. Hence

option (b) is the correct choice.

and contextually correct. Hence option (e) is the correct choice.

is the one which is not given then choose option (d) as your choice.

 

  1. when President Trump and (A)/ inability of Japan’s government (B)/

Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe met (C)/ this week, let us hope

their agenda (D)/ included Japan’s weak industrial security (E)

(a) ACDE

(b) BEAC

(c) BCAE

(d) None of these

(e) No correction required

Answer & Explanation
Ans. a

Exp. The correct sequence to arrange the sentence properly and

meaningfully is ACDE. Part (A) and (C) can be interlinked. The hint can

be received as the sentence is describing a meeting between the US

President and the prime minister of Japan. Moreover, part (B) of the

sentence fails to connect logically and contextually with any other part of

the sentence. Hence, option (a) becomes the most viable answer

choice.

  1. allows any single creditor to (A)/ a long-mooted bankruptcy law (B)/

initiate the bankruptcy process (C)/ finally passed last year (D)/ as bad

loans tumbled out (E)

 

(a) ACDE

(b) BEAC

(c) BDAC

(d) None of these

(e) No correction required

Answer & Explanation
Ans. c

Exp. The different parts of the sentence can be assembled in a

sequence of BDAC to make the sentence grammatically correct and

contextually meaningful. Part (B) clearly introduces the sentence while

part (D) (A) and (C) connects logically with each other and is moulded in

an accurate grammatical structure. However, part (E) is superfluous and

doesn’t fit in the sentence. Therefore, option (c) becomes the most

satisfactory answer choice.

  1. IRNSS is being developed with the aim (A)/ more before utilising it as

the ground segment (B)/ and receivers are yet to be deployed (C)/ while

the IRNSS space segment is in place, (D)/ India still has to wait a few

months (E)

(a) ACDE

(b) DEBC

(c) BDAC

(d) None of these

(e) No correction required

Answer & Explanation
Ans. b

Exp. The correct sequence to arrange the sentence properly and

meaningfully is DEBC. Expression (E) “India still has to wait a few

months” can be joined with expression (B) “more before utilising it as the

ground segment” as they can be contextually related. However, part (A)

doesn’t belong to the context of the sentence and thus shall be

eliminated. Therefore, option (b) is the most suitable answer choice.

  1. with digital transactions (A)/ failing to gain currency, (B)/ the

dependence on cash (C)/ has become more overwhelming (D)/ now

than in pre-demonetisation days (E)

(a) ACDE

(b) DEBC

(c) BDAC

(d) None of these

(e) No correction required

Answer & Explanation
Ans. e

Exp. The given sentence is properly assembled and doesn’t require any

further changes or restructuring. All the parts of the sentence help to

 

make the sentence comprehensive, logical and grammatically error free.

Hence, the correct answer key is option (e).

  1. the Delhi government has (A)/ proposed a policy that will (B)/

compensate for unscheduled power outage (C)/ make it mandatory for

discoms to (D)/ unscheduled power outages will (E)

(a) ACDE

(b) DEBC

(c) BDAC

(d) None of these

(e) No correction required

Answer & Explanation
Ans. d

Exp. The correct sequence that makes the sentence grammatically and

contextually correct is ABDC. This can be verified as the parts (B) and

(D) frames a logical pair providing a coherent meaning. None of the

given options provides these parts in a consecutive manner. Moreover,

part (E) fails to become the part of the sentence in a coherent manner.

Hence, option (d) is the most suitable answer choice.
