Question:

Preventive action of this kind has a further significance, for it implies a belief that the dead might be ________ and had power to harm the living.

  1. Magnanimous
  2. Auspicious
  3. Malevolent
  4. Auspicious
  5. Melancholy

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

The missing word is describing an aspect related to the dead and the fact that the dead had the power to harm the living is another such aspect. This implies that the missing word cannot mean something close to ‘magnanimous’ or ‘auspicious’. Out of the remaining options, ‘malevolent’ and ‘vindictive’ are the closest in meaning and therefore, C and D are the correct answers.
