1.

Which of the following is the most similar to INTERVENTION in the given passage?1). Intermediate 2). Flourishing 3). Intercession 4). Plodding

Answer»

Correct option - 3

Let's first FIND out the meaning of 'intervention' :- the action or process of intervening; interfering. 

Now, find the meaning of given options :-

Intermediate - coming between two things in time, place, CHARACTER, etc.

Flourishing - developing rapidly and successfully; thriving.

Intercession - the action of intervening on behalf of another.

Plodding - slow-moving and unexciting.

Recrimination - an accusation in response to one from someone else.

It is mentioned in the passage that the role in the development of the reforms for removing POVERTY, as opposed to other public policy interventions, needs clarification. Hence, development is not done for SOMETHING unexciting or accusation. And, development is not done for something that is ALREADY developing rapidly.Also, 'intermediate' is out of context. Thus, option 3 i.e. intercession gives the most similar meaning to word 'intervention' in given passage.
