Question
Each of the sentences below has two of three blanks
along with five options. You have to choose the option that provides the correct set of words that fits all the blanks and makes them meaningful and grammatically correct. The new software update was expected to __________ several bugs, but it ended up causing even more __________ issues.Solution
The first blank needs a word that means to get rid of or remove bugs, so "eliminate" is the appropriate choice. "Fix" (choice a) is similar in meaning, but "eliminate" is more suitable in this context. The second blank needs a word that describes the kind of issues the software update caused. "Unexpected" (choice d) is the right choice here because it conveys that the issues were not anticipated. The other options do not fit the context.
