Question

Select suitable option to complete the sentence:

In the third world, the most over-militarised countries tend to be _____________

• A. the oil rich countries.
• B. the ones who have traditionally had a military past.
• C. neighbours scared of each other.
• D. the ones economically interdependent.

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

neighbours scared of each other.

Option C is the most appropriate because it justifies the cause of being over-militarized as mentioned in the first part of the sentence. The statements of options A,B and D do not imply the same meaning or their status of being overly militarized. Thus, Options A,B and D are incorrect.
