Question
In the question below, a sentence is provided, with one
word highlighted in bold. Three pairs of words is given, out of which only one word of each pair can replace the highlighted word to make the sentence grammatically and meaningfully correct. From the options below, choose the one that provides the correct combination of words of each pair that will replace the highlighted word. A fall in house prices would have a significant impacted on consumption if households used a substantial amount of debt to purchase a home, as many did before the housing crisis. (A) impact /(B) impactful (C) effect /(D) affect (E) influenced /(F) influenceSolution
(b) We need a noun here to be modified by the adjective SIGNIFICANT. The sentence talks about how a fall in house prices would have a major effect on consumption if households used a significant portion of debt to purchase a home. IMPACT, EFFECT and INFLUENCE will fit here. Thus, (b) is the right answer. IMPACTFUL is an adjective. AFFECT and INFLUENCED are verbs. The highlighted word IMPACTED is also a verb.
