Solution

The correct option is C scrap

The word that has same meaning as the italicized word in both the sentences is Option C, scrap. Scrap means a small piece of something. Scrap is also a noisy fight or an argument over something unimportant. Sentence I means that the message was written on a scrap of paper. Sentence II means Gautam got into a scrap with his classmate. Option A, 'grab' means to snatch. Option B 'box' means is a container typically square or rectangular in shape. Option D, 'brush' means an implement with bristles used for cleaning etc. Option E 'fist' is hand with fingers tightly held in. Thus, the options A, B, D and E are incorrect and the correct answer that could be used in both the sentences is option C, scrap.
