SSC CGL - 01 Dec 2022 - Shift 4 • English • Q7

Select the most appropriate synonym of the bracketed word to fill in the blank.

For Rahul, everything was a _________ (modern) experience until he stepped onto the field.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

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

  • The word "modern" is given in brackets, and the most appropriate synonym for "modern" would be "new".
  • The sentence talks about Rahul's experience, and the word "new" implies that everything Rahul had experienced was different, but that changed when he stepped onto the field.
  • The other two options, "Global", "Flashy", and "Asiatic", do not fit the context of the sentence.

Thus, the most appropriate filler for the given blank is new.

Therefore, the correct sentence is:

For Rahul, everything was a new experience until he stepped onto the field.
