    blank, followed by five options, each having two words which may or may not fit in the blank. From the given options, choose the one that gives the correct pair of words that fit in the blank. When I am in ____, I think too much about space and then it feels like my brain is going to explode at any time.

    B Seclusion, remote Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Isolation, solitariness Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Protecting, separation Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Friendly, protection Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The given sentence talks about a person who, when in a particular place or state, thinks too much about space to the extent of feeling as if his/her brain is going to explode. The blank requires a noun to describe that state. Among the given options, the pair of 'isolation' and 'solitariness' fits in the blank appropriately. 'Isolation' means the state of being detached or separated. 'Solitariness' means the state of being in solitude. Hence, (b) is the correct answer. Option (a) is negated because 'alone' is an adjective. Option (c) is negated because 'protecting' is a verb. Option (d) is negated because 'remote' is an adjective; its noun meaning won't be relevant in the given context. Option (e) is negated because 'friendly' is an adjective.
