List-I (Sentences) |
List-II (Pairs of words) |
Explanation |
|
(A) _____ marriages were arranged, but that has ____ changed now. |
(III) traditionally/somewhat |
Traditionally sets the past context, and somewhat (partially/to a certain degree) describes the extent of the change. |
|
(B) He did the test so ____, that he didn't ____ finish a part of it. |
(I) carelessly/even |
Carelessly describes the manner of doing the test, and even is used for emphasis to suggest an unexpected consequence (not finishing). |
|
(C) Although he was dressed ____ he wasn't ____ relaxed. |
(IV) casually/very |
Casually describes the manner of dressing, and very (much/extremely) describes the degree of his relaxation (or lack thereof). |
|
(D) _____ each player is good, but they don't play well _______ as a team. |
(II) individually/enough |
Individually (on a per-person basis) provides a strong contrast to "as a team." The word enough modifies "well," implying their collective performance falls short of the required standard. |
