In the following question, a sentence is given having two blanks in it followed by 5 options. Each option contains a pair of words. Choose the option which contains the correct pair of words that can be filled in both the blanks respectively to make the sentence contextually and grammatically correct. After some hours of discussing problems of old age, the chatbot suddenly_____________, issuing a ___________-and alarming message.

Solution

"Snapped" means to react suddenly and sharply, which fits well with the chatbot's unexpected behavior."Blunt" means direct and without softness, aligning with the idea of an alarming message. "Paused, misleading" – "Paused" does not convey the idea of an abrupt reaction, and "misleading" does not match "alarming.""Halted, vague" – "Halted" implies stopping completely, which is not the case in the sentence. "Vague" does not fit the description of the message being alarming."Glitched, exaggerated" – "Glitched" suggests a technical issue rather than a sudden response. "Exaggerated" does not mean "blunt.""Stopped, confusing" – "Stopped" is too neutral, and "confusing" does not match the tone of "alarming."Thus, "snapped, blunt" is the most appropriate choice.
