Question and options
Two sentences I and II are given. Each sentence has a blank in it. Find the suitable word which fits at both places.
I. Many __________ men remarry and have second families.
II. When he was depressed, he felt utterly __________ from reality.
II. When he was depressed, he felt utterly __________ from reality.
- dividend
- disturbed
- devoted
- divorced
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D - divorced
'Many divorced men remarry and have second families', and 'he felt utterly divorced from reality' (completely cut off from it). 'Dividend', 'disturbed' and 'devoted' do not fit sentence I (and 'devoted from reality' is wrong), so only 'divorced' fits both.
