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

7)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(E)<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n2- Pronoun

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

Option A and B are irrelevent.<\/p>\n

Option C is contradictory to what author states, because then if prime minister falls country will not be able to survive.<\/p>\n

The main point of the passage is country will survive as it is independent of any other factors.<\/p>\n

The author is presenting several alternative futures and stating that the country would thrive in every future and this fact will not depend on any of the current factors responsible. If this thing would have happened earlier also and the country is still thriving, this will most strongly support the author’s argument.<\/p>\n

Hence, option D is the correct answer.<\/p>\n

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

It can be inferred from the given line that assumptions are analogous to ingredients in a recipe. Only the taste of the final food can tell whether the ingredients were appropriate or not. Option E is the most relevant.
\nHence, option E is the correct answer.<\/p>\n
