Question

    In each of the questions below, a sentence is given with

    two blanks, indicating that some parts are missing. Identify the correct pair of words that fit in the sentence to make it grammatically and contextually correct. "Assets freeze" ______ that all states must freeze, without delay, the funds and other financial assets or economic resources of ______ individuals and entities.
    A Mean, honest Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Means, permit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Mean, crooked Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Means, dishonest Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of the above Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    A singular verb is needed in the first blank (to agree with the singular noun phrase "assets freeze") and an adjective is needed in the second blank to modify the noun 'individuals'. The above-mentioned criteria eliminate all the options except option D as only option D has the correct combination of words that fits in both the blanks respectively. Rest of the options have words that are either grammatically or contextually incorrect in one of the blanks. Option D is the correct answer.
