Explanation:

- The passage describes a tragic situation where members of a family have been affected by the Nipah virus. This context is essential for choosing the right word for blank no. 1.

- Option 1: "died": This word fits the context as it refers to someone who has passed away, but it is quite similar to "succumbed" in this context.

- Option 2: "succumbed": This choice is the most suitable. "Succumbed" indicates giving in to a disease or illness, which aligns with the passage's context of a family member succumbing to a virus infection.

- Option 3: "pioneered": This word means leading or initiating something, which does not fit the context of the sentence or passage.

- Option 4: "embezzled": This refers to stealing or misappropriating funds, entirely unrelated to the context of illness or death in the passage.
