Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

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

  1. adorned- to add something in order to make a thing or person more attractive or beautiful.
  2. Imposed- to make a law, rule, opinion, etc. be accepted by using your power or authority.
  3. reposed- to be in a particular place.
  4. curbed- to limit or control something, especially something bad.

As the statement concludes that "Discipline" should come from within it means that it should not be imposed on the people in the form of low or opinion.

The chosen option shows the meaning "to make a law, rule," so, it will suit the paragraph.

Hence, the chosen option will be the correct answer.
