CLOZE TEST

PREPARATORY SET-02 (NEW PATTERN)

Direction (Qs.1 to 10): In the following passage there are words highlighted in bold, each of which has been numbered. These numbers are given below the passage and against each, four words are suggested, one of which fits the blank appropriately. Find out the appropriate word in each case. If the word highlighted in bold does not require any replacement, choose (5) as your answer.

 

The Indian economic model has been a bit of a paradox. India has sometimes impinged (1) the successful economies of East Asia in terms of high domestic savings, close integration with the global economy and macroeconomic fidelity (2). And it has sometimes resembled the volatile countries of Latin America in terms of weak domestic savings, macroeconomic instability and growing oligarchic power. This column had earlier analyzed (3) that rising inequality could mean successive governments would have strong incentive to honor (4) fiscal spending in a bid to buy social peace, taking India closer to the Latin American model. High domestic savings are a/an cardinal (5) part of the story. The admiring (6) investment boom in the five years to 2008 was supported by a sharp rise in the domestic savings rate. The revival (7) in investment activity after 2010 led to a current account crisis because domestic savings were relatively deliberate (8). In other words, those magic moments of rapid economic intensification (9) plus macroeconomic stability are possible only when the domestic savings rate is rising (10).
