    Question

    In the following questions, a sentence is given with

    two blanks. Identify the correct pair of words that fit in the sentence to make it grammatically and contextually correct. Both Houses have been briefly ________________amid an uproar over the no-confidence ________________against the opposition leader.
    A dissolved, announcement Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B adjourned, notice Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C suspended, decision Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D delayed, proposal Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of the above Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    For the first blank, the word "adjourned" fits perfectly because it refers to temporarily suspending or pausing proceedings in a legislative body, which aligns with the context of the sentence. Other options like "dissolved" or "terminated" imply a permanent end, which is not appropriate here. For the second blank, the word "notice" is the most suitable choice. In parliamentary contexts, a "no-confidence notice" refers to an official written notice or proposal of a motion. Other options like "motion" or "announcement" don't fit as accurately in this context. "Delayed" implies postponement rather than a temporary suspension, and "proposal" does not accurately describe a formal no-confidence notice. Hence, option 2 i.e., adjourned and notice are the correct choice.
