Question

    A sentence with two blanks is given, each blank indicating that something has been omitted. Choose the words that best fit the meaning of the sentence as a whole.

    The court had directed the directorate of education to

    ___________ that all schools that had been allotted land on the condition that they would ___________ 25 percent of EWS students fill the allotted seats.
    A Ensure, Admit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Certify, Admitted Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Confirmed, Receive Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Ensured, Granted Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    In the first blank, since we have ‘to’, the base form of the verb should be used. So, 4 and 5 can be eliminated. In the second blank, after ‘would’, ‘admit’ is correct, not ‘admitted’. Both words in option 1 is correct.
