Question
In the question below, a statement has three
words highlighted in bold, which may or may not be correctly used. You are required to choose from the options, the one that provides the correct combination of the 3 words which fit in the blanks grammatically and contextually. If the original set is correct, please select option E as your answer.  India’s effort to become a powerhourse  industry hub has hit a roadblock: to be seen as a fallacious  replacement for China by international firms, it first needs to patch up relations with its old rivalry . ÂSolution
Solution The intended idea in the question sentence is that India needs to enhance its credibility and improve relationships with its main competitor to be recognized as a significant alternative to China in the industry sector. The original words in bold are incorrect because 'Moderate' does not convey the intended strength, 'fallacious' implies falsehood rather than credibility, and 'rivalry' which is a noun does not specify the opponent. Option A:Â 'Giant' (large) and 'legit' (genuine) do convey the intended meaning but 'allies' (supporters) is opposite to competitive opponent. Option B: Â 'Majority' (greater part) is irrelevant as we require an adjective and not a noun and 'foe' (enemy) is not as formal as than 'adversary'. Option D: Â 'Feasibility' (practicality) is incorrect as it refers to practicality rather than credibility, and 'combatant' (fighter) is too specific compared to 'adversary'. Option C: Â 'Dominant' (powerful) accurately describes India's industrial goal, 'credible' (trustworthy) fits the need to be a reliable alternative, and 'adversary' (opponent) appropriately refers to the competitive opponent. Hence, option C is correct.
