Question
In the following question, two statements are given
with a part missing. From the options, choose the word that can fit in the sentences to make it grammatically and contextually correct. 1. As finance minister in the Rattazzi cabinet of that year he had been ________ with a public debt of nearly 120,000,000. 2. Dean did feel a pang of regret at not having __________ Joseph Dawkins on one important matter.Solution
1 talks about he had to bear the burden of a huge public debt, and 2 talks about he felt regret at not having faced Dawkins on the important matter. CONFRONTED can fit in both sentences and convey both meanings. Thus, (b) is the right answer. Conformed - adapted to accepted standards. This will not fit in any sentence. C will fit only in 2. D will fit only in 1.
