Fill in the Blanks

After having been friends for more than a decade, they had a dispute last year and have not seen each other ever since. First option does not fit as we cannot use 'talked' in the second blank. We need to add 'to' after talked. Second option would require use of article 'an' before 'argument'. Option 4 & 5 also do not fit as the second part in the options are out of context.

We have the preposition 'in' after the first blank. So, option 1 is ruled out. Option 3 has 'intruding' which is out of context. In the second blank, cheerful and obliged are incorrect. Thus, only option 4 is correct.

Plagued means troubled or disturbed. It correctly fits the first blank. You cannot be indebted/coping 'by difficulties'. So, both options 1 & 3 are ruled out. Shaken and hurt also do not fit the context. So, only plagued is correct. Second option 'vital' also correctly fits the second blank.
