    Question

    Given below is a sentence with one blank. Below the

    sentence are given four words among which one word might fill the blank. If none of the words fill the blank to form a meaningful sentence, choose option 5 ‘None of the above’ as your answer. After months of dry weather, the farmers were relieved to see the sky filled with dark clouds, a clear sign of ___________ rain.
    A frequent Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B artificial Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C approaching Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D harmful Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of the above Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The sentence suggests that the clouds are a sign that rain is coming soon. "Approaching" means coming nearer in time or space, which fits the context. The other words (frequent, artificial, harmful) either don’t make sense here or change the meaning negatively.
