The correct answer is "who was ostracized for refusing." This answer correctly uses the relative pronoun "who" to refer to Charles C. Boycott, the English land agent in Ireland. The phrase "who was ostracized for refusing" provides additional information about Boycott's situation, specifically that he was ostracized for refusing to reduce rent.

The pronoun "its" in option (d) does not have a clear antecedent in the sentence. The sentence is referring to the dispute between the lawyers, so the correct pronoun to use would be "their" instead of "its". This would make the sentence grammatically correct and coherent.

The given sentence is in the past perfect tense. The subject "she" had already seen the movie before, so the correct form of the verb should be "having seen" instead of "being seen." "Being seen" implies that someone else saw her, which does not make sense in the context of the sentence.

The word "composition" refers to the makeup or arrangement of something. In this context, it is referring to the makeup or arrangement of the committee. The phrase "for which it is" suggests that the purpose of the committee should be reflected in its composition. Therefore, the correct answer is "composition, for which it is."

The word "equidivision" is the incorrect use of a prefix. The correct prefix for "division" should be "di-" or "tri-" to indicate dividing into two or three parts, respectively. The prefix "equi-" means equal or evenly distributed, so "equidivision" does not accurately convey the intended meaning.

The correct answer is "one". This answer completes the sentence by stating that Gauhar Jamil was one of the pioneers of modern dance. The phrase "one of" indicates that there were multiple pioneers, and Gauhar Jamil was among them. The sentence also mentions that he didn't begin dancing until he was 21, which implies that he achieved recognition and success in the field despite starting relatively late.

The correct answer is "b" because the verb "told" should be followed by an object pronoun (me, him, her, us, them) instead of a subject pronoun (I, you, he, she, it, we, they). Therefore, the correct phrase should be "told them."

A circle is a two-dimensional shape, while a sphere is a three-dimensional shape. Similarly, a square is a two-dimensional shape, and a cube is a three-dimensional shape. Therefore, the relationship between a square and a cube is the same as the relationship between a circle and a sphere.

The correct answer is "many indescribable way" because the phrase should be "many indescribable ways" to match the plural subject "I want to travel, to learn and, to make a difference."

The correct sentence is "You should not suppose that just because he has lost a few games he is not a good coach." This sentence is grammatically correct and effectively conveys the idea that losing a few games does not necessarily mean that someone is not a good coach.

The word "unloyal" is the incorrect use of a prefix. The correct form of the word should be "disloyal." The prefix "un-" is typically used to negate the meaning of a word, while the prefix "dis-" is used to indicate the opposite or absence of a quality. Therefore, "unloyal" is not a standard or accepted form of the word.

The correct answer is Gay : Cheerful. The relationship between the words "toxic" and "harmful" is that toxic substances are harmful. Similarly, the relationship between "gay" and "cheerful" is that being gay is associated with being cheerful or happy.

The relationship between a judge and a courthouse is that a judge works in a courthouse. Similarly, the relationship between a physician and an infirmary is that a physician works in an infirmary. Both pairs consist of a professional occupation and the specific place or location where they typically work.

The correct answer is (b) because the phrase "putting of for" is incorrect. The correct phrase is "putting off" which means to delay or postpone. Therefore, the correct sentence should be "You cannot keep putting off for tomorrow what you can do today."

The relationship between fire and ashes is that ashes are the result or aftermath of a fire. When something burns, it turns into ashes. Similarly, in the given event, memories can be seen as the result or aftermath of an event.

The word "Delighten" is the wrong use of a suffix/prefix because "delight" is already a noun and does not require a suffix or prefix to change its meaning. The correct form would be "delightful" or "delighted".

The correct answer is d because "rising" is the correct verb form to use in this context. The sentence is discussing Rakib's inability to improve his grades despite studying all the new materials. Therefore, the verb "rising" is appropriate as it indicates an upward movement or improvement in his grades.

The word "reprimanded" means to scold or rebuke someone for their actions. In this context, the authority is expressing disapproval or criticism towards the admin officer. The word "obstreperous" means noisy and difficult to control. By using this word, it suggests that the admin officer's way of redacting was disruptive or unruly, leading to the authority's reprimand.

The given answer correctly states that the elephant-shaped building known as "Lucy" has been towering over Margate City, New Jersey since 1881. This implies that the building has been a prominent and recognizable landmark in the city for a long time.

The word "Disaccordant" is the incorrect use of a prefix because the correct prefix for this word would be "in," not "dis." The word "accordant" means in agreement or harmony, so adding the prefix "dis" would create a word that means not in agreement or harmony. However, the correct prefix to use in this case would be "in," resulting in the word "inaccordant" which means not in agreement or harmony. Therefore, "Disaccordant" is the wrong use of a prefix.

The word "Doctrination" is the wrong use of a suffix/prefix because it does not contain any prefix or suffix. The correct use of a suffix/prefix would involve adding a word part to the beginning or end of a base word to create a new word with a different meaning. In this case, "Doctrination" is a standalone word without any added word parts.

The correct answer is "that due considerations be given to all the proposal equally". This is the correct form of the sentence in terms of subject-verb agreement and parallel structure.

The correct sentence is "Spring brings with it signs of renewal that make themselves known in a thousand ways." This sentence is correct because "signs" is plural, so it should be followed by the plural verb "make." Additionally, "themselves" is used correctly to refer back to the plural noun "signs."

The sentence "When children watch too much violence on TV, it may effect their behavior" is incorrect. The correct word to use in this context is "affect" instead of "effect". The verb "affect" means to have an influence on something, while "effect" is a noun that refers to the result or consequence of something. In this case, the sentence is discussing how watching violence on TV can impact or influence children's behavior, so the correct word to use is "affect".

The word "throng" is correctly used in options i and ii. In option i, it is used to describe a large number of shoppers gathering at the malls. In option ii, it is used to describe a vast crowd of demonstrators. Both of these options demonstrate the correct use of "throng" to convey the idea of a large group of people. Therefore, the correct answer is i & ii.
