Question
Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank number 1.
Option 1: during
Option 2: along
Option 3: while
Option 4: across
Correct Answer: during
Solution : The correct choice is the first option.
The sentence implies that red kites were viewed as vermin in Britain and Ireland, specifically during the 16th century. The use of during emphasises the temporal relationship, indicating that this negative perception was prevalent in that particular historical period.
The meanings of the other options are as follows:
Therefore, the complete sentence is: "Red kites were considered vermin across Britain and Ireland during the 16th century."
Question : Directions: In a certain code language, ASIA is written as ZHRZ, and IRELAND is written as RIVOZMW. How will NORWAY be written in that language?
Option 1: NLISZB
Option 2: MLIDZB
Option 3: NJIDZB
Option 4: MJIDZB
Correct Answer: MLIDZB
Solution : Given: ASIA is written as ZHRZ, and IRELAND is written as RIVOZMW.
Write the opposite pair of each letter of ASIA to obtain the required code – A→Z; S→H; I→R; A→Z Thus, ASIA is coded as ZHRZ. And in, IRELAND is written as RIVOZMW – I→R; R→I; E→V; L→O; A→Z; N→M; D→W Thus, IRELAND is coded as RIVOZMW. Similarly, follow the same pattern for NORWAY– N→M; O→L; R→I; W→D; A→Z; Y→B
So, NORWAY is coded as MLIDZB. Hence, the second option is correct.
Red kites were considered vermin across Britain and Ireland (1)____ the 16th century and their numbers were rigorously (2)____ While public perceptions have changed, gamekeepers and farmers still (3)____ shoot, poison and trap red kites for the (4)_______ harm they cause to livestock and game. In 2020 alone, 20 red kites were confirmed to have been (5)______ this way in the UK.
Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank number 2.
Option 1: changed
Option 2: choked
Option 3: controlled
Option 4: loosened
Correct Answer: controlled
Solution : The correct choice is the third option.
The phrase "and their numbers were rigorously controlled" indicates that deliberate measures were taken to manage or limit the population of red kites. The word controlled appropriately reflects the idea of active management or regulation, making it the most fitting choice.
Therefore, the right word to fill in the blank is controlled.
Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank number 5.
Option 1: awakened
Option 2: killed
Option 3: subjected
Option 4: rooted
Correct Answer: killed
Solution : The correct choice is the second option.
The sentence indicates that 20 red kites were confirmed to have been killed in the UK as a result of the actions of shooting, poisoning, and trapping mentioned earlier in the passage. The term killed signifies a fatal outcome caused by these harmful actions.
Therefore, the complete sentence is: "In 2020 alone, 20 red kites were confirmed to have been killed this way in the UK."
Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank number 4.
Option 1: kicked
Option 2: dirty
Option 3: perceived
Option 4: shipped
Correct Answer: perceived
The sentence indicates that gamekeepers and farmers shoot, poison, and trap red kites based on the perceived harm they believe the birds cause, implying that this harm is subjective and not necessarily proven. The term perceived suggests that these actions are driven by a subjective belief or opinion of harm rather than concrete evidence.
Therefore, the right word to fill in the blank is perceived.
Question : Select the most appropriate option to substitute the bracketed segment in the given sentence. If there is no need to substitute it, select 'no substitution required'.
It is expected that this police power will only apply to air and (sea routes between the Great Britain and the Northern Ireland).
Option 1: sea routes across the Great Britain and Northern Ireland
Option 2: sea routes across the Great Britain and the Northern Ireland
Option 3: sea routes between Great Britain and Northern Ireland
Option 4: No substitution required
Correct Answer: sea routes between Great Britain and Northern Ireland
Explanation:
When referring to countries, continents, states, or regions by their proper names, it's common to omit the definite article ("the"). Great Britain and Northern Ireland are proper nouns denoting specific regions rather than generic descriptions. This option accurately conveys the idea that police power is applicable specifically to the routes that link these two locations.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: It is expected that this police power will only apply to air and sea routes between Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank number 3.
Option 1: illegally
Option 2: randomly
Option 3: fairly
Option 4: unknowingly
Correct Answer: illegally
The sentence indicates that gamekeepers and farmers continue to engage in activities such as shooting, poisoning, and trapping red kites in violation of laws or regulations. The term illegally accurately reflects that these actions are unauthorised or against the law.
Therefore, the complete sentence is: "While public perceptions have changed, gamekeepers and farmers still illegally shoot."
