Question

    The following question carries one statement with one blank. Choose the most appropriate word from the options to fill the blank.

    After months of negotiations, the two countries finally

    reached a ______ agreement that is expected to strengthen their economic ties.
    A fragile Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B tentative Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C permanent Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D comprehensive Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    In the context of the sentence, the word "comprehensive" means thorough and complete, which aligns with the idea of an agreement that strengthens economic ties. "Fragile" and "tentative" imply uncertainty or lack of stability, while "permanent" suggests something unchanging, which may not fit the context of negotiations that typically lead to adaptable agreements.
