Question
In the question below, two sentences with one
word in each highlighted in bold. From the options, choose the one that can replace the highlighted words in BOTH these sentences to make grammatical and contextual sense. 1. The internet is now a vital part of global commerce, and Russia can't disconnect itself from this system without crippling its economy. 2. I apologize for offending you so much that you bore a grudge for thousands of years.Solution
Solution 1 uses the word CRIPPLING to convey how disconnecting from the internet will damage Russia's economy. 2 uses the word OFFENDING to convey how the author is sorry for hurting their feelings of the listener. HURTING can replace both words to convey the requisite meanings. Thus, (c) is the right answer. Grieving - mourning or hurting someone's feelings. Paralyzing - injuring gravely. Insulting - hurting. A and D will fit only in 2, while B will fit only in 1.
