Question and options

In the question, the sentence has two blanks: each blank indicating that something has been omitted. Choose the set of words for the blanks which best fits the meaning of the sentence as a whole.

"The ______ of new projects in the energy sector is ______ not only on low cost or profitability of the project but also on sustainability".
  1. planning, vulnerable
  2. occurrence, premised
  3. initiation, dependent
  4. starting, possible

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: C - initiation, dependent
'Initiation of new projects ... is dependent not only on ... but also on sustainability' fits both the meaning and the preposition 'on'. 'Premised' does not suit 'occurrence', and 'vulnerable' and 'possible' do not take 'on' this way.
