Question
Smoke from fires ________ into the NCR while the air becomes still and heavy as the weather turns colder than before.
Options:
A .  Dazzles
B .  Headlines
C .  Drifts
D .  Moved
E .  Initiated
Answer: Option C
Answer: (c)Meaning of Words: Dazzles - Something so exciting that it impresses or amazes someone very much, Drifts - a steady movement or development from one thing to another. The seconds clause of the sentence starts with a connector while and has Verb in an indefinite form (Becomes). And seeing the position of blank in the first clause, we understand that the blank will be filled by a verb only and that too in indefinite form (Verb + s). With this, two of our options get eliminated - Moved, Initiated; even if it seems the correct verb. Also, Headlines is a noun which is not required for the blank. Dazzles require a direct object and is not followed immediately by “into”. The only word left is Drifts.
