Answers & Solutions:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

1)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(C)<\/strong><\/p>\n

The underlined portion acts as the subject of the sentence. Therefore, the underlined portion acts as a noun. No verb is present in the underlined portion. Therefore, the underlined portion is a noun phrase and hence, option C is the right answer.<\/p>\n

2)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(A)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Obvious is a latin word which means ‘frequently met with’. Therefore, option A is the right answer.<\/p>\n

\nAscetic means to renounce worldly pleasures and live as a hermit.
\nReverent means to hold something (God or elders) in high regard.

5)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(B)<\/strong><\/p>\n

8)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(B)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lukewarm is the correct usage in the first blank as it means not entusiastic. “Electifies” correctly matches the second blank. Hence the correct option\u00a0is B.<\/p>\n

Clips bind papers.
\nThreads bind the beads.
\nCement holds together the brick.

10)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(D)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Neither ‘style’ nor ‘wealth’ is appropriate in the first blank. The word ‘morals’ is apt. Between ‘story’ and ‘theme’, ‘theme’ is more appropriate in the second blank. Hence, option d).<\/p>\n
