Verbal Reasoning - English - Sentence Equivalence:

Basics

MCQ - 11-11713

Question:

The novel is admittedly not the finest example of its genre, but I object to the ____ preface written by a supposed expert on detective fiction from whom we might have expected at least one or two perceptive comments.

egregious
inane
pretentious
inane
vacuous

Correct Answer: B

Explanation:

The writer is complaining about a preface which apparently does not contain any insights (perceptive comments). Hence we can say that the preface is �inane� or �vacuous� as these words suggest something empty of meaning. [egregious = outstandingly obvious, blatant; pretentious = putting on an act of superiority; subliminal = under the threshold of consciousness]
