Question

Fill up the blank $\left(5\right)$:

• A. Smashed
• B. Seized
• C. Dismantled
• D. Frozen

Answer 1

The correct option is B Seized

Option B: 'Seized' means 'take possession of by legal right'. Here it refers to the "automobiles" which can be seized by the department.

Hence this word completes the sentence in meaning and option B is correct.

Option A: 'Smashed' means 'violently broken into pieces'.

Option C: 'Dismantled' means 'made separate into different components'.

Option D: 'Frozen' means 'prevent assets from being used for a certain period of time'. 'Automobiles' are not assets that can be frozen, as they are directly "auctioned off".

These words are not relevant in meaning and context. Hence options A, C and D are wrong.
