Select the phrase/connector (in between I and II) from
the given three options which can be used to form a single sentence from the two sentences given below, implying the same meaning as expressed in the statement sentences. I. While the loan demand from the priority sector plunged to a low 1.9 per cent in the June 2020 quarter from a high of 10.2 per cent a year ago, the same from the farm sector declined to 4.7 per cent from 7.2 per cent. II. Demand from the industry fell to 2.2 per cent from 6.4 per cent, it plunged to 10.7 per cent from the services sector from 13 per cent and personal loans fell to 10.5 per cent from 16.6 per cent. i. Like ii. Similarly iii. Such asSolution
(b) Sentences in both I and II have similarities in terms of sentence structure i.e., both of the sentences are talking about the reduction in demand for loans. Therefore, the connector should show similarity. Which out of the options is given by only ‘similarly’? 'Like' and 'such as' are used to give examples. Hence the answer is b) and the sentence will be: While the loan demand from the priority sector plunged to a low 1.9 per cent in the June 2020 quarter from a high of 10.2 per cent a year ago, the same from the farm sector declined to 4.7 per cent from 7.2 per cent; similarly, demand from the industry fell to 2.2 per cent from 6.4 per cent, it plunged to 10.7 per cent from the services sector from 13 per cent and personal loans fell to 10.5 per cent from 16.6 per cent.
