2. Voracious means __________

Explanation

Voracious means having a very eager or insatiable appetite. It is often used to describe someone who is excessively greedy or hungry for something, whether it be food, power, or success. Therefore, the correct answer is "greedy".

Submit
3. His credulous nature often landed him in trouble:

Explanation

The phrase "credulous nature" suggests that the person in question is easily convinced or swayed by others. This often leads them to believe things without questioning or doubting them, which can result in them getting into trouble. Therefore, the correct answer is "willing to believe easily."

Submit
4. Choose the correct one:

Explanation

The correct answer is "She reminded me of the nice days of my childhood." This is because when we want to express that someone brought back memories or made us think of something, we use the preposition "of." In this case, the phrase "of the nice days of my childhood" indicates that the person reminded the speaker about the pleasant days they experienced during their childhood.

Submit
5. The parade route was down the main boulevard:

Explanation

The correct answer is Avenue because a parade route typically takes place on a main road or boulevard, which is commonly referred to as an avenue. A driveaway is not a commonly used term for a road, a highway is a larger road designed for high-speed travel, and an alley is a narrow passage typically found between buildings, none of which would be suitable for a parade route.

Submit
6. Shakespeare, a (an) _________________ writer, entertained audiences by writing many tragic and comic plays.

Explanation

Submit
7. Choose the best match According to given relation:           DWELL  :  DENIZEN

Explanation

The given relation "DWELL : DENIZEN" suggests that "DENIZEN" is a person who dwells or resides in a particular place. Similarly, the relationship "inherit : heir" implies that an "heir" is someone who inherits something from someone else. Both words in each pair have a similar relationship where one term is a person or entity related to the action or concept of the other term. Therefore, "inherit : heir" is the best match for the given relation.

Submit
8. Which one has proper use of preposition?

Explanation

The correct answer is "If I am lying, the curse of Allah be on me and may I be drowned in some period. May I even be deprived of a decent burial!" This is the proper use of the preposition "of" after the verb "deprived." It indicates what is being taken away or withheld, in this case, a decent burial. The other options ("deprived off" and "deprived from") are incorrect and not grammatically accurate.

Submit
9. Given Below is a Paragraph. Read it  and Answer the Question:I fretted the other night at the hotel at the stranger who broke into my chamber after midnight, claiming to share it. But after his lamp had smoked the chamber full and I had turned round to the wall in despair, the man blew out his lamp, knelt down at his bedside, and made in low whisper a long earnest prayer. Then was the relation entirely changed between us. I fretted no more, but respected and liked him.The probable purpose of the author using the phrase, "lamp had smoked the chamber full" is to

Explanation

The phrase "lamp had smoked the chamber full" suggests that a significant amount of time had passed while the lamp was lit and smoking, filling the room with smoke. This indicates that the author is trying to establish a period of time, emphasizing the duration of the situation before the man blew out the lamp and prayed. The phrase does not imply the use of low-grade fuel, figurative language, the lamp being turned up too high, or the faultiness of the lamp.

Submit

Explanation

The word "desultory" means lacking a plan, purpose, or enthusiasm. On the other hand, "assiduous" means showing great care, attention, and effort. These two words have opposite meanings as "desultory" implies a lack of focus and effort, while "assiduous" suggests a high level of dedication and diligence. Therefore, "assiduous" is the most nearly opposite in meaning to "desultory".

Submit
11. Mongoose : mammal :: granite : _____________

Explanation

Submit
12. Noxious is most nearly opposite in meaning to:

13. Mitigate means _______________:

Explanation

Mitigate means to lessen or reduce the severity, intensity, or impact of something. It implies taking actions to make a situation less harmful or severe. Therefore, attenuate, which means to weaken or diminish, is the correct answer as it aligns with the definition of mitigate. Aggravate means to make something worse, virulent means extremely harmful or severe, and contemplate means to think about or consider.

Submit

16. The peasants were the least ____ of all people, bound by tradition and ____ by superstitions.

The correct answer is "free - fettered". This answer is appropriate because it contrasts the idea of being free with being fettered, which means being bound or restricted. The sentence suggests that the peasants were the least free and were instead bound by tradition and limited by superstitions.

Submit

Poetry provides the one permissible way of saying one thing and meaning another. People say, "Why don't you say what you mean?" We never do that, do we, being all of us too much poets. We like to talk in parables and in hints and in indirections whether from diffidence or some other instinct.What selection best describes the word "diffidence"  as used in the passage?

Explanation

The word "diffidence" is used in the passage to describe a behavior or instinct of talking in parables, hints, and indirections. This behavior can be attributed to reservations, as the individuals mentioned in the passage may have reservations about directly expressing their thoughts or feelings.

Submit
18. Castigate is most nearly opposite in meaning to:

Explanation

The word "castigate" means to criticize or reprimand severely. The opposite of this would be to praise or commend someone, which is the meaning of "extol." Therefore, "extol" is the correct answer as it is most nearly opposite in meaning to "castigate."
