3. (a) Illegal thing is not recorded or registered. It can be performed or conducted.
4. (e) For a post through different processes - selection or short listing is done.
5. (d) Procedure can only be flawed or miscalculated. Other options raise a conflict in first and second part of the sentence.
6. (c) All options can fit. Only proper option with proper combination has to be selected.
7. (a) Prior /Blanket fits in grammatically and goes well with sentence.
8. (d) By seeing people sleeping on road in winter is annoying or make angry or render someone speechless or surprise so all the options can fit. But the best combination is this.
9. (b) With courage exemplary and extreme are correct. ‘Unprecedented’ is also good with ‘courage’ but is not given in the options with correct pair.
