Sentence Completion (Level-3): Test-3

In the given sentence, the person talked about has a vivacious manner, i.e. vigorous and animated. And the person being talked to is told to remain beware of his manner and not be fooled by him as he is known for a certain quality of his, which we can make out must be lack of honesty and a deceitful nature. So the correct option is D which means ‘dishonesty and faithlessness’. Garb is a disguise or excuse. A conduit is a channel or a small pipe or kennel. Gumption is astuteness or smartness.

The correct option is avarice which means greed, for money and it is one of the few things in the world that can make man go mad. The meanings of the other words are as follows: A formulary is a canon or a law. Lineage is status or the status of the ancestors. Felicity is a state of blessedness or a state of happiness. Pennon has nothing to do with greed, it is just a sign.

The sentence tells us that the person is stuck in a state wherein it he is facing difficulty in choosing from available options, such a state is known as a state of ‘quandary’. Hence, option B is the correct answer. The meanings of the other words are as follows: Predicament means a difficult situation from which extrication is difficult, which is not quite the case here, as the person is confused rather than being stuck in a problem. Predisposition means a disposition in advance to react in a particular way. Discourse is a formal discussion on a subject.

Macabre is the correct option which means gruesome and horrible. The other words do fit the given context as we need words that show the disgust of the audience. The meanings of the other words are as follows: Lucid means clear. Doleful means sad. Mellifluous means sounding good and smooth. Incredulous means something unbelievable.

We need a word that showcases a person who follows the orders of someone else and does not challenge the person. The words that are apt for the sentence are: Reticent, which means shy. Docile, which means easily lead or willing to be taught. Servile, which means submissive or fawning in attitude or behaviour. In the given case, we can see that option E is the best choice as it best col-relates with the sentiment of a boss not willing to listen to others. Remember, this is a tough question and in case you got it wrong, do not worry.
