Fill Blanks

Question:

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.

India continues to ____________ the highest amount of e-waste, more than China, the US, Japan and Germany.

Options:

generate

remake

stake

select

Correct Answer:

generate

Explanation:

The most appropriate option to fill in the blank is generate.

The word "generate" means "to produce or create something." This is the most appropriate word because it accurately describes how India produces more e-waste than any other country in the world.

The other options are not as appropriate.

  • Remake means "to make something again." This does not make sense in the context of the sentence, because India is not making e-waste again, it is producing it for the first time.
  • Stake means "to claim ownership of something." This does not make sense in the context of the sentence, because India is not claiming ownership of e-waste, it is producing it.
  • Select means "to choose something." This does not make sense in the context of the sentence, because India is not choosing to produce e-waste, it is simply producing it as a result of its economic growth and consumption patterns.
