Solution

The correct option is C having both advantages and disadvantages

In the above mentioned passage, the most appropriate answer for completing the sentence is Option A.

The passage describes Ray Bradbury, a well known name in the circuit of science fiction and thrillers. His work, The Martial Chronicle, is what made him leap into the winds of success at the age of thirty. In his work, the plot revolves around how technology can be a boon and a bane at the same time. These are like two sides of the same coin, and hence are described as a ‘mixed bag of feelings’, as mentioned in option A.

The other Options B, C and D describe various stand-offs between two issues that aren’t described in the passage, though there are references to science, technology and technical factores and are hence, unsuitable for the answers.
