Q: Answer-In the question below, a statement has three words highlighted in bold, which may or may not be corr...

Solution The intended idea in the sentence is to highlight common negative emotions that challenge our emotional aspect. The original words in bold are incorrect because upbeat contradicts the negative emotions mentioned. Option B Adverse unfavourable fits, but societal relating to society is contextually weak and trauma severe distress is too extreme for the context of common emotional challenges. Option C Although, personal and stamina fit the context, brutality extreme violence is inappropriate grammatically as we need adjective to qualify nun emotions. Option D Gloomy sad somewhat fits but reliable dependable is unsuitable, and endure to last is a verb, not a noun.
