    One of my most__________ possessions is a ___________ leather wallet that used to belong to my late grandfather.

    A good , nice Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B special ,tacky Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C prized , battered Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D great , battered Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E none of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Option 1 -Good cannot be used with ‘most’, therefore ruled out ; Option 2 –something that is tacky may not be special; Option 4- Great again cannot be used with ‘most’ . Option 3 will be the best option as ‘prized’ depicts the importance of the thing which is now ‘battered’ as it belonged to someone old enough,but is special.
