      Question

      In the sentence, certain words are in bold and

      numbered from A to E, which are the possible pairs to be interchanged. Choose the pair(s) of words which need to be interchanged to make the sentence grammatically correct and meaningful.  There was a production (A) among the major (B) blocs of countries on whether comprehensively (C) addressing plastic pollution (D)requires eliminating plastic disagreement (E)itself.
      A B-C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B C-A Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C A-E Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D E-D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E D-C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The two words that need to be swapped are (A) production and (E) disagreement . The sentence, as it is, is not making sense. The phrase "a production among the major blocs" is not a standard English construction. However, a "disagreement among the major blocs" is a common and logical phrase. By swapping the two words, the sentence becomes: "There was a disagreement among the major blocs of countries on whether comprehensively addressing plastic pollution requires eliminating plastic production itself."
