Question

    In the question below, two sentences with one word in

    each highlighted in bold. From the options, choose the one that can replace the highlighted words in BOTH these sentences to make grammatical and contextual sense. 1. When you have visited a region , you will find it harder to advocate its destruction. 2. I hope you find someone to take my position soon.
    A place Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B rank Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C site Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D locale Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E All Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    1 uses the word REGION to refer to a place visited by one. 2 uses the word position to refer to the office or status. PLACE can replace both words to convey the requisite meanings. Thus, (a) is the right answer. RANK will fit only in 2, while SITE and LOCALE will only fit in 1.
