In the question given below, two sentences are given with one blank each. From the given answer choices, choose the option which contains the word that fits in both the sentences making them grammatically and contextually correct.
I. What began as a postwar ______ for sunbathing is rapidly developing into a world health crisis.
II. It's just like how Americans have a/an ______ with steroid body builders and breast implants.
1.obsessive
2.rare
3.addict
4.complexion
5.fetish
Correct Answer : 5
Solution :
A noun would fit in both the blanks to be modified by the adjective 'postwar' in sentence I and after articles 'a/an' in sentence II as articles are always followed by nouns. So, adjectives 'obsessive' and 'rare' are eliminated. 'Complexion (natural colour)' is a misfit because it has no relevance to the context of any sentence. 'Addict' is also a misfit because it is used for the person but the sentences are about abstract things. So, 'fetish (obsession)' is the correct choice which would convey in sentence I about obsession for sunbathing and in sentence II about obsession for steroid body builders and breast implants.
Hence, option (e) is correct.
