SSC CGL 2018 PYQ — Question 36

SSC CGL Tier II English - 20/02/2018 • English • Q36

In the following question, the sentence given with blank to be filled in with an appropriate word. Select the correct alternative out of the four and indicate it by selecting the appropriate option.

There is no ______ the fact that traditions have a greater hold on the public than anything else.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Denying.

1. 'Jig' means 'a lively dance' and 'abduct' means 'kidnap'. Both sound irrelevant in the sentence.

2. 'Bemuse' means 'confuse'; it may be taken as an answer but 'bemusing' means 'confusing' which is grammatically incorrect. If it were 'confusion', it would be correct.

3. 'Deny' means 'refuse', and makes a coherent sentence.
