    Question

    Given below are two sentences with one blank each. You

    are provided with five options. Both blanks must be filled with only one word or one option. Identify the correct word or option that will make both the sentences complete grammatically and contextually. The vote was won only as the result of much _____________ by the government. Is it possible to be partners when one side conducts internal and foreign policy through diktat and ____________, while the other values democratic persuasion?
    A Arm twisting Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Supervening Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Debacle Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Debating Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E All of the above can fit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    'Supervene' means unexpected development and 'debacle' means a sudden and ignominious failure; a fiasco, neither of them can fit in the blanks contextually. 'Debating' also doesn't make any sense here. 'Arm twisting' which means forceful persuasion, will be the correct answer. Hence, (a) is the right answer.
