Solution
The correct option is A repository - educated
Here, E is the best answer as 'repository' which generally means "a place where or receptacle in which things are or may be stored or a place where something, especially a natural resource, is found in significant quantities" perfectly fits the first blank and 'educated' befits the second blank of the sentence. Each word of E conveys the required meaning. So E is the answer.The other choices do not fit the context as well as E does.
