SSC MTS 2nd Nov 2021 Shift-1

sincere

cordial

eager

intend

- The sentence is: "The new recruit was ______ to impress his superiors."

- Option 1: sincere

- "Sincere" means genuine or honest. It describes a person's character, not usually their drive or motivation.

- Option 2: cordial

- "Cordial" means friendly or warm. This does not fit with the act of wanting to impress someone.

- Option 3: eager

- "Eager" means enthusiastic or keen to do something. It perfectly fits the context—the recruit is keen to impress.

- Option 4: intend

- "Intend" is a verb, not an adjective, so it does not fit grammatically in the blank.

The most appropriate word is Option 3: eager.
