    Question

    In the following question, a sentence is given with

    certain phrases marked as (A), (B) and (C). Choose the option with the pair(s) of phrases that need to be interchanged to make the sentence grammatically and contextually correct. If no change is required, mark 'No change required' as your answer. Famed psychologists like meaning and significance (A) may have made big names for themselves mining the Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung (B) of our dreams, but even today, with powerful brain-monitoring technology, it's tough to get a handle on what (C) , exactly, is going on.
    A C-B Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B A-C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C A-B Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Both A-C & C-B Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No change required Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Phrase B is incorrectly placed because the definite article 'the' is never used before the name of a person. This phrase can be correctly interchanged with phrase A as the word 'like' after 'famed psychologists' indicates the presence of the names/examples of such psychologists. Phrase A, i.e., 'meaning and significance' can be perfectly associated with 'dreams.' Phrase C is placed correctly. So, phrases A and B need to be interchanged to make the sentence grammatically and contextually correct.
