GRE 31-Verbal Question 1

VERBAL
Question 1
British modernists used the literary tropes of fragmentation and failure to explore the impending ____(i)____ of British colonialism;
illustrating the imminent ____(ii)____ of the empire through their literature.

Blank i  1-averece   2-castigation 3-dissolution

Blank ii 1-sunset       2-rise        3-wealth
----------------------------------------------------------------



dissolution and sunset
This sentence employs parallel structure, and the semicolon trigger tells you that both blanks will go in the same direction; either of
your two clues, fragmentation or failure, can be recycled into both blanks. Of the choices for the 􀁌rst blank, only dissolution makes
sense; of the choices for the second blank, only sunset is sufficiently negative.
