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. The novel’s plot was so ___________ that readers found themselves guessing the ending until the very last page.
    A predictable Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B monotonous Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C intriguing Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D irrelevant Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of the above Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    "Intriguing" means fascinating and arousing curiosity, which fits the idea that readers were guessing the ending. "Predictable" and "monotonous" imply dullness or obviousness, which contradicts the context, and "irrelevant" means unrelated, which doesn’t make sense here.
