| List-I | List-II | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| (A) Traditionally marriages were arranged, but that has somewhat changed now. | (III) traditionally/somewhat | Traditionally means according to old custom. Somewhat means to some extent. The custom of the past has changed a little. |
| (B) He did the test so carelessly, that he didn't even finish a part of it. | (I) carelessly/even | "So + adverb ... that" shows a result: he worked without care, and "even" stresses how surprising the result was. |
| (C) Although he was dressed casually he wasn't very relaxed. | (IV) casually/very | Casually means informally. "Although" sets up a contrast: informal clothes, yet he was not very relaxed. |
| (D) Individually each player is good, but they don't play well enough as a team. | (II) individually/enough | Individually means one by one, separately, which contrasts with "as a team". "Well enough" means to the level needed. |
