Question
You are provided with a sentence with one word missing,
denoted by a blank. You are presented with four options (A), (B), (C) and (D), identify which of the following words can fill the blank making the sentence contextually correct. The new house which has been built behind our property completely ________ our view of the ocean. (A) cloaks (B) obliterates (C) obscures (D) AmplifiesSolution
'Obliterates' means destroy or wipe out, which does not fit into the context here. If a new house has been built behind the property, then it cannot amplify (intensify) the view that was visible before; therefore, we can eliminate D. 'Obscure' or 'cloak' means to conceal or to hide; both fit into the context here; hence option d is the correct choice.
