Directions: The following question has two blanks, each blank indicating that something has been omitted. Choose the set of words for each blank that best fits in the context of the sentence.
The emergency services _________ the accident site as soon as the news of the train collision was _______ to them.
suspended, emitted
Incorrect Answercarried, postponed
Incorrect Answerfinished, pronounced
Incorrect Answerreached, relayed
Correct AnswerExplanation:
In the context of the sentence, the emergency services arrive at the accident site in time. Hence, the only suitable word for the first blank is "reached".
Besides, the word "relayed" meaning 'passed on' fits the second blank correctly as the news of the accident was passed on to the emergency services.
Option D is hence the correct answer.
