Multiple choice

Directions: Select the most appropriate filler(s) for the blank(s) such that the sentence makes coherent sense.

Discourses must be treated as discontinuous practices, which cross each other, are sometimes ________ with one another, but can just as well exclude or be unaware of each other.

  1. similar

  2. juxtaposed

  3. disconcerted

  4. misapprehensive
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

'Sometimes' in this sentence implies that the property that is to be filled in the blank is in contrast to what precedes it. Thus, 'juxtaposed' or appearing alongside each other is in contrast to the words, “which cross each other” that precedes the blank. Therefore, it is the apt word and hence, (2) is the answer.
