Question 1 (ix)
How can the solutions, suggested in paragraph five, best be described?
- practical
- presentable
- popular
- prejudiced
Answer:
From the paragraph:
To stop these nets from becoming ghosts in the first place, conservation organisations advocate for fishing gear that can be traced to its owner so anyone dumping nets can be fined and refundable deposits on nets to encourage returning or recycling rather than littering . Tools like sonar reflectors that can make ghost nets easier to find and working with small-scale fisheries to develop more sustainable fishing gear and practices are other suggestions. It is only by attacking this problem from all sides , together with conservation partners, fishers and supporters, can we banish ghost nets and protect our oceans.
Checking the options:
- A. Practical - This is correct.
- B. Presentable - means worthy of showing
- C. Popular - means famous or known to all
- D. Prejudiced - means not liking or trusting somebody/something for no other reason than his/her/its race, religion or sex
So the correct answer is option A.
