Question

    Choose the most appropriate word from the options that

    can fill the blanks. Although the new education policy aims to reduce rote learning and encourage critical thinking, its implementation across diverse states has been uneven, leading many experts to view the initiative as a noble but ultimately ______ effort, plagued by bureaucratic inertia and a widespread ______ of trained faculty.
    A futile … dearth Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B transparent … plethora Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C frivolous … surplus Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D reluctant … monopoly Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E defiant … abundance Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Futile means pointless or ineffective — perfectly matches the idea of a noble effort that ultimately fails. Dearth means scarcity — fitting for a shortage of trained faculty.  Other options fail in tone or meaning: • Transparent doesn’t describe effort; plethora (excess) contradicts the idea of shortage. • Frivolous implies silly, which doesn’t suit a national policy. • Monopoly is irrelevant; reluctant doesn’t describe “effort.” • Abundance is the opposite of a shortage.
