Question

Fill in blank 1 with the correct option:

• A. impetuousness
• B. absoluteness
• C. weariness
• D. wolfishness

Answer 1

The correct option is A impetuousness

The meanings of the given words are as follows:

'Impetuousness' means 'impulsiveness', characterized by a sudden or rash action.

'Absoluteness' means 'characterized by perfection'.

'Weariness' refers to tiredness or fatigue.

'Wolfishness' refers to 'a resemblance to a wolf'.

Option A, 'impetuousness', suits the passage the most, as the words 'adventure-loving' indicate that the butterfly loved the thrill. This thrill is often found while making impulsive decisions. Hence option A is correct.

'Absoluteness' or perfection is not relevant, as the line describes the energy of the butterfly.

'Weariness' is the opposite of the description given: adventure-loving.

'Wolfishness' is not relevant to the traits of a butterfly.

These words do not relate to the passage. Hence options B, C and D are incorrect.
