In the following passage, some words have been deleted. Read the passage carefully and select the most appropriate option to fill in each blank.

When trust is broken, as it is being done often in the present-day world, the world seems upside down for the people who are suffering due to their trust being broken. When close friends or close relatives break their (1) _________, it is (2) ________ natural to feel hurt and experience misery. But, (3) _________ a grudge or waiting to take revenge damages both, mental and physical health. This is a very crucial stage for anybody. One needs to understand that he is already suffering and negative emotions like revenge, grudge, and anger will let him/her down completely. What should one do when (4) __________ trust is broken is the question. Mind coaches, religious gurus and wellness trainers suggest a noble quality of ‘Forgiveness’. It is the quality which we need to practice for our own well-being. It does not simply mean forgetting what happened. It is understanding from others’ point of view. If there  is something comprehensible, we can try to repair the relationship. Forgiveness helps to be  good and makes one stand high in every human relation. So, forgiveness is not only powerful  but also power giving. The entire world, along with the lives of the people in it, (5) _________  on trust.

 Select the most appropriate option to fill in blank number 5.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. operates

The entire world, along with the lives of the people in it, (5) operates on trust.

Subject-verb agreement:

When the subject is singular, the verb associated is also singular. Here, the subject is the world (grammatically singular) and so the verb will be singular i.e. operates. Also, the sentence is in present tense.

Hence, operates is the correct answer.
