SSC MTS - 26 July 2022 - Shift 3 • English • Q20

Back to paper

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.

It was the last ______ of the puzzle.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. piece.

  • The given sentence is incomplete, and the blank requires a noun to complete the sentence.
  • The most appropriate option to fill in the blank would depend on the context of the sentence.
  • However, if the sentence is referring to a puzzle, the most appropriate option would be "piece," since each piece of a puzzle must be fitted together to complete the whole puzzle.

  • The option "priest" refers to a member of the clergy, and does not make sense in the context of the sentence.

  • The option "peace" refers to a state of calm or absence of conflict, and also does not fit the context of the sentence.

  • The option "pique" refers to a feeling of irritation or resentment, and does not make sense in the context of the sentence.

Thus, the correct sentence is:

"It was the last piece of the puzzle."
