Banking Exams English — Question 1869
Question
Fill in the blank: 'The old bridge was so _____ that the authorities closed it for repairs.'
- sturdy
- renovated
- spacious
- dilapidated
Correct answer
D — dilapidated
Explanation (English)
A bridge closed for repairs must be in poor condition. 'Dilapidated' means fallen into ruin or disrepair, which fits. 'Sturdy' and 'renovated' contradict the need for repair, and 'spacious' is irrelevant.
