Explanation:

- The blank (2) in the passage says: "It may sound difficult to (2)_____________ the obstacles in our career but challenges are rewarding."

- Let’s go through the options:

- Option 1: solve

- “Solve the obstacles” doesn’t make sense. We solve problems, not obstacles.

- Option 2: forego

- “Forego the obstacles” is off—forego means to give up or do without, which doesn’t fit here.

- Option 3: overcome

- ?? Correct Answer: “Overcome the obstacles” is the natural, common phrase. It means to get past challenges, which matches the meaning of the passage.

- Option 4: meet

- “Meet the obstacles” isn’t the right fit; it means to encounter, but the sentence is clearly talking about dealing with and passing obstacles.

- In context, the author is saying that it might seem hard to get past the obstacles in our career but doing so is rewarding. Overcome is the word that works perfectly.
