    In each of the following sentences, four words have

    been highlighted and labelled (A), (B), (C), and (D). These words may or may not be correctly placed in the sentence. You are required to identify the correct pair(s) of words that need to be interchanged to make the sentence grammatically and contextually meaningful. If the sentence is correct as it is, choose option (E) – “No interchange required.” The sudden (A) surge in transaction volume (B) strained the servers, causing a temporary (C) disruption in services and reducing overall (D) resilience of the digital infrastructure.
    A A–D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B B–C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C C–D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D A–C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No interchange required Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Current phrase: surge in volume … reducing overall resilience  Meaning issue: Resilience means strength/recovery ability — not something that reduces. Correct logic: temporary surge in services  Temporary disruption in services  Swap surge ↔ resilience After swapping: temporary surge replaced properly, and resilience aligns better with infrastructure strength. Hence A–D
