These four words may or may not be in their correct position. The sentence is then followed by options with the correct combination of words that should replace each other in order to make the sentence grammatically and contextually correct. Find the correct combination of words that replace each other. If the sentence is correct as it is, select ‘E’ as your option.

    E The sentence is correct Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The statement is not correct in its present form and it is clear from first bold word as “ alleviate” and increase are almost synonymous. Therefore, option E can be ruled out easily. Now, coming to the given options, if we carry out the interchanging of the pair A-D it gives a meaningful statement that means our choice must have A-D. So option A and option B have this choice. If we interchange B-C it does not make any sense This makes the correct statement as: Announcement of possible tariff increases by all three private operators is a big positive surprise and has potential to alleviate stress in the industry, This makes option A the correct choice among the given options.
