Fill in the Blanks

'New facts in nature' in last part of the sentence gives a clue for the blank. This implies that some supernatural forces at times with their mysterious acts reveal new facts to us about nature of all the options, 'disclose' in (3) fits our prediction and hence, it is the answer.

The operative word in this sentence is 'and' before the blank which implies that the blank must be replaced by a word that is a synonym of monk. An 'anchoret' is a person who lives alone and apart from society for religious meditation. Therefore, it fits our prediction. 'Jesuits' is a member of the society of Jesus and 'Capuchin' is a member of a branch of the Franciscan order that adheres strictly to the original rule. These options do not characterize the blank as they are off the track, hence ruled out. Therefore, (1) is the answer.

The objective case must be used. Hence, 'me' is the correct answer.

Here, we need objective pronoun for the first person. Hence, option 3.

 The missing pronoun should be in objective case, i.e 'his'.

 The missing pronoun must be in the possessive case. Hence, the correct option is 'hers'. 

Note the difference:This is my pen. (The subject 'pen' comes after the possessive nominative)

This pen is mine. (No subject comes after the possessive)

 The answer should be in objective case. Hence, option 1 is correct.

 'One' should be followed by 'one's'

 The sentence is trying to find the doer of the action. Hence, the subjective case of the pronoun is used.

 The pronoun corrosponding to 'gift' is 'it'.

 The answer should be in objective case, i.e. 'him'.

 The missing pronoun should be in the possessive case. 

 The missing pronoun is the object of the sentence. 'Whom' is the objective pronoun.

 The possessive case of second singular person is used here. 

'When I met him' indicates that the time has passed. Hence, the answer should be 'that'.
