HTET TGT Social Studies Mock Test - 5 - Question 11

Directions: In the following question, a sentence is given with a blank. You have to fill the blank with one of the words given as options in order to make the sentence contextually and grammatically correct.

Heavy rain and hail as big as tennis balls were also possible as forecasters said the weather _______________ was expected to continue.

Detailed Solution for HTET TGT Social Studies Mock Test - 5 - Question 11

Let us first learn the meanings of the given words:

Outbreak (noun): a sudden occurrence of something unwelcome, such as war or disease.

Explode (verb): arise or develop suddenly.

Eruption (noun): the act of starting suddenly and violently.

Commencement (noun): the beginning of something.

Inception (noun): the establishment or starting point of an institution or activity.

The use of ‘commencement’ and ‘inception’ is contextually absurd while verb ‘explode’ is also wrong as we need only a noun after ‘weather’. Now, between ‘eruption’ and ‘outbreak’, ‘weather outbreak’ makes an apt noun phrase as per the context. Thus, ‘outbreak’ is a better choice.

Hence, option A is correct.

Reasons for holding a by-election:
- Death of a member: If a sitting member passes away, a by-election is held to fill the vacant seat.
- Resignation of a member: When a member voluntarily resigns from their position, a by-election is conducted to choose a new representative.
- Disqualification of a member: If a member is disqualified from holding office due to legal or ethical reasons, a by-election may be necessary to replace them.
Importance of by-elections:
- Representation: By-elections ensure that each constituency is represented in the legislative body, even when a seat becomes vacant.
- Democratic process: By-elections uphold the democratic process by allowing citizens to choose their representatives.
- Balance of power: By-elections can impact the balance of power in the legislative body, potentially influencing the political landscape.
