      Question

      In the question given below, two sentences are given

      with one blank each. From the given answer choices, choose the option which contains the word that fits in both sentences making them grammatically and contextually correct. 1. Although the treaty appeared balanced on paper, several diplomats privately warned that its provisions were too ______ to withstand prolonged geopolitical pressure. 2. The structural engineer rejected the preliminary design after observing that the support framework remained dangerously ______ under cyclical loading conditions.
      A Adaptive Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rigid Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Resilient Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Vulnerable Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E Strategic Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Sentence 1 requires: → inability of treaty provisions to endure pressure. Sentence 2 requires: → inability of physical structure to resist stress. “Vulnerable” means: → exposed to risk, damage, or failure. It works: politically in sentence 1 mechanically in sentence 2 Others fail: adaptive = opposite rigid = not implied resilient = opposite strategic = irrelevant Hence, option (4).
