Question

    In each of the following questions, a sentence is given

    with four words given in bold. Which of the following words should replace each other to form a meaningful and grammatically correct sentence? The meaning can be different from the one in question . Conduct workshops and stigma (A) programs for boys and aim to foster supportive (B) and understanding about menstruation, reducing awareness (C) and promoting empathy (D) attitudes.
    A Only A-D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Both A-C and B-D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only B-C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Both A-B and C-D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No arrangement required Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    A (stigma) & C (awareness): "Stigma programs" contradicts the positive goal of the sentence. "Reducing awareness" is also illogical in this context. Swapping them creates "awareness programs" (standard phrase) and "reducing stigma" (a positive, logical goal). B (supportive) & D (empathy): "Foster supportive and understanding" is grammatically slightly off because "understanding" is a noun here, but "supportive" is an adjective. Furthermore, "empathy attitudes" (at position D) is awkward. Swapping them creates "foster empathy" (noun matching understanding) and "promoting supportive attitudes" (adjective modifying noun). Correct Sentence: "Conduct workshops and awareness programs for boys and aim to foster empathy and understanding about menstruation, reducing stigma and promoting supportive attitudes."
