Question 71

Fill in the blank(s) with appropriate word/ words.
As ......... head of the organisation, he attendedsocial functions andcivil meetings, but had no ........ in the formulation of companypolicy.

Solution
Let us see the meaning of the given words
Word


Meaning
Titular Holding or constituting a purely formal position or title without any real authority.
Hypothetical being or involving a hypothesis. Hypothesis is a supposition or

proposed explanation made on the basis of limited evidence as a starting

point for further investigation.
Nominal (of a role or status) Existing in name only

While ‘titular’, ‘former’ and ‘nominal’ are possible options for

the first blank, ‘competition’ is totally out of context for the second

blank.

Now we are down to two choices, (B) or (D). One does not ‘have pride’ but ‘takes pride’ in the formulation of company policy.

Moreover, the sentence subtly indicates a non-appreciative tone in reference to the head of the organization.

Hence, option (D) would fit the blank.
