Answer» SINCE the sentence talks about the still ongoing harassment of women in India for dowry, we can assume that this issue is a significant. This meaning is shared by choices A and F, major and prime. Major means ‘important or serious’ and prime means ‘of first importance; main.’ ‘Insignificant’ which means ‘too small or unimportant to be worth consideration’ coveys the OPPOSITE meaning of the one required and hence choice E is cancelled. The rest of the choices B, C and D are irrelevant as their meanings are: Cohesive=> characterized by or causing cohesion Timid=> showing a lack of courage or confidence; easily frightened Sharp=> having an edge or point that is ABLE to CUT or pierce something Hence the CORRECT answer is option 1.

SINCE the sentence talks about the still ongoing harassment of women in India for dowry, we can assume that this issue is a significant. This meaning is shared by choices A and F, major and prime.

Major means ‘important or serious’ and prime means ‘of first importance; main.’

‘Insignificant’ which means ‘too small or unimportant to be worth consideration’ coveys the OPPOSITE meaning of the one required and hence choice E is cancelled. The rest of the choices B, C and D are irrelevant as their meanings are:

Cohesive=> characterized by or causing cohesion

Timid=> showing a lack of courage or confidence; easily frightened

Sharp=> having an edge or point that is ABLE to CUT or pierce something

Hence the CORRECT answer is option 1.
