C Correct answer
Explanation

Integrity is a fundamental moral value that encompasses honesty, strong moral principles, and ethical conduct. The passage mentions 'basic moral values like honesty,' and integrity directly represents honesty and uprightness in character. 'Cunningness' is the opposite of moral, 'purpose' is an aim or goal, and 'feebleness' suggests weakness - none of which fit the context of positive moral values.

D Correct answer
Explanation

A 'code of conduct' is a set of rules outlining the proper behavior and responsibilities for individuals or organizations. The passage mentions that some companies have a formal set of guidelines, which is best described as a 'code of conduct'. While 'honor' and 'dignity' are positive values, they are not systematic codes. 'Objectives' are goals rather than behavioral guidelines.

Explanation

The passage describes heart attack symptoms including 'sweating, pallor or ____(iv)___ in skin'. Pallor means paleness, so the missing word should be a similar concept. Paleness (D) is the logical parallel to pallor - both describe loss of skin color. Darkness, redness, and whiteness don't fit the medical context.
