  1. challenges
  2. maximizes
  3. epitomizes
  4. nullifies

Far from exercising a counter influence to intellectual orthodoxy, the movement itself has become a center of

  1. conformity
  2. notoriety
  3. enmity
  4. theology
  5. idealism

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The use of the phrase 'far from becoming a challenge to intellectual orthodoxy' implies that the new movement has also become something similar to such orthodoxy. Among the choices, it is the word 'conformity' which is closest to the word 'orthodoxy'. So, A is the answer.



People, being prisoners of ______________, have made failing a basic metaphor for failure, from the fall of the stock market to the fall of government.

  1. politics
  2. gravity
  3. greed
  4. turbulence
  5. emotion

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

The author says that the use of the word "fall", as a metaphor to represent "failure", arises out of the people being prisoners of something. Among the given choices, it is gravity that is the best choice, because it is gravity that brings win every physical object from a higher (success) to a lower (failure) level. So, B is the answer.



The movie avoids many of the ______________novel, bringing into sharper focus characters that originally were amiable or disagreeable

  1. subtleties...monsters
  2. excellencies...stereotypes
  3. allusions...individuals
  4. particulars...nonentities
  5. shortcomings...blur

Answer(s): E

Explanation:

If the movie had brought the characters in the novel to a sharper focus, those characters must have been portrayed with less sharpness in the novel. Among the choices, it, is 'stereotypes; and blurs' which have this meaning. But 'stereotypes' cannel be described as excellence of a novel. So, B can also be ruled out. The pair of words in E completes a meaningful sentence, and is the answer.
