Answer & solution
Correct answer: important areas ... formation
- A
things ... growth
- B
fertile areas ... basis
- C
fertile fields ... inculcation
important areas ... formation
Social studies, science matters of health and safety and the atmosphere of the classroom, help in formation of proper emotional responses. Hence these can be referred to as the ‘important areas’. ‘things’ is too vague a word to fill the first blank. Emotional reactions cannot be ‘inculcated’. Given ‘basis’ and ‘formation’, the second word is more appropriate to fill in the second blank.
