Question
A sentence is given in which certain words are
highlighted. Choose the option with the pair/s of words that need to be interchanged to make the sentence grammatically correct and meaningful. If no change is required, mark E as your response. With variable prevalent (A) leading to fewer guarantees about your future pay (B) and pink slips becoming more compensation (C) in India, there's all the more reason to take on loans (D) that you can comfortably afford (E) with your current earnings.Solution
'Prevalent' is an adjective and is incorrectly used at (A) after another adjective 'variable', as there is no noun following the former. 'Prevalent' fits at (C), where we need an adjective after the adverb 'more', which indicates comparison.
