Directions: The sentence below has two blanks. Beneath the sentence are five sets of words. Choose the set of words that, when inserted in the sentence, best fits the meaning of the sentence as a whole.
Our _________ objections finally got us thrown out of the stadium and the match was _______ to our opponents.
-
loquacious, accorded
-
vociferous, granted
-
outspoken, conferred
-
malleable, presented
-
springy, donated
B
Correct answer
Explanation
‘Loquacious’ or ‘springy’ objections cannot be the reason of being thrown out. So, (1) and (5) are straightaway out. If we concentrate on both the blanks, it becomes clear that no other option perfectly fits in except (2). Vociferous means loud/noisy. Matches are granted not conferred (bestow), accorded (allowed/admitted), presented or donated.
