Directions : In each of the questions given below, four words are given in bold. These four words may or may not be in their correct position. The sentence is then followed by options with the correct combination of words that should replace each other in order to make the sentence grammatically and contextually correct. Find the correct combination of words that replace each other. If the sentence is correct as it is, select ‘E’ as your option.

    B A-D and B-C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C A-B and C-D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only A-C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No exchange required Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    At C, the third form of the verb is needed. Since ‘an’ is used before the verb, only ‘unintended’ is suitable there. So, A-C should be interchanged. While most observers expect that a Chinese invasion remains too risky a prospect for the Communist Party leadership in the immediate future, an unintended escalation no longer remains a remote possibility.
