152.	1). To fail to attain a specified amount or level2). To fall from something3). Get into trouble4).
Answer» The phrase “fall/fell SHORT” means to fail to reach an amount or standard that was expected or hoped for, causing disappointment. For example: August car SALES fell short of the INDUSTRY's EXPECTATIONS. Thus, option 1 is the correct answer.

154.	1). public support to implement these at any cost.2). success rate of these reforms from time to time.3). past experiences clearly indicating the success rate of such reforms.4). willingness of the political establishment to enforce implementation.
Answer» The SENTENCE talks about defence reforms and we need to choose the correct option here as to what when backs the reforms leads to success. Only option 4 makes a clear meaning here that when such reforms are backed by political establishment and IMPLEMENTED, they are SUCCESSFUL reforms. The other options FAIL to convey any meaning.

161.	Which of the following words most appropriately fits the blank labelled (J)?1). City2). National3). International4). Inter-state
Answer» India and Germany are already interacting at the INTERNATIONAL level. They'd want that this interaction LEADS to something in their own country as well. So, option 2) NATIONAL is the most APPROPRIATE choice.

164.	1). Produces2).3). Product4). Purchase
Answer» ?The sentence TALKS about revenue. So, the blank must CONTAIN a verb that MEANS 'generating', or 'producing'. Now, options 1 and 2 both use different forms of the verb 'to produce'. But, as the sentence uses the PLURAL noun 'duties', the corresponding verb must be present in its normal present tense form 'produce'. Therefore, the correct answer is option 2.

168.	1). Austere2). Utility3).4). Purchase
Answer» ?The sentence talks about the beauty of the trees, so the blank must also CONTAIN a VERB that REFLECTS this meaning. 'Ornament' means a decoration, which is at here, given the CONTEXT of the sentence. Therefore, the correct answer is option 3.

172.	1). Modern2). Modernity3). Moderate4). Modest
Answer» 'Modernism' is the noun form of modern which means the quality to hold the modern CHARACTERISTICS, IDEAS and THOUGHTS ‘Modern’ is the suitable adjective that qualifies the word ‘arts’. However, out of the other options 'modernity' is a noun which means the same as ‘modernism’ and hence does not qualify the noun ‘arts’. The rest of the options i.e ‘moderate’ and ‘MODEST’ mean AVERAGE and hence are not suitable words to replace the word ‘modernism’.

177.	Which of the following words most appropriately fits the blank labelled (H)?1). Venture2). Operation3). Statement4). Reaction
Answer» The ALLIANCE has just been ANNOUNCED, which MEANS that it will be all words and not much immediate action. Venture means 'to take a RISK'. The fit choices are 3 and 4, but since they aren't reacting to anything, option 3), statement is the most appropriate CHOICE,

183.	He is still at large after all these years.1). Influential2). Popular3). Not yet captured4). Unknown
Answer» The phrase “at large” means that a person (criminal mostly) is still not CAPTURED and police are unable to CATCH him. THUS, option 3 is the correct ANSWER.

197.	1). Total destruction2). A great distance3). The next stoppage4). A very expensive place
