      Question

      In the following questions, a part of the sentence has

      been highlighted. Choose the most appropriate replacement from the given options. If no improvement is required, choose the option accordingly. No matter your culinary skills, spend some reflective time in the kitchen to rejuvenate and devitalize your sense of self.
      A No substitution Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Nourish and renew Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Weaken and deteriorate Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Replenish and sap Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E Stimulate and exhaust Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The sentence carries a positive reflective tone: relaxation, rejuvenation, self-care, emotional restoration. However: “devitalize” means: → weaken or drain vitality, which contradicts “rejuvenate.” Thus, the replacement must preserve: → positive emotional restoration. “Nourish and renew” perfectly complements: → rejuvenate, → reflective time, → restoration of self. Why others fail: (a) original creates contradiction (c) negative meaning contradicts context (d) “sap” means weaken/drain (e) “exhaust” contradicts rejuvenation Hence, option (b).
