English

The phrase that correctly completes the sentence is 'in spite of the consequences.' This phrase means that he quarreled with his boss despite knowing or disregarding the consequences. The options 'helpless' and 'headless' do not fit idiomatically or grammatically in this context. 'Both' is not appropriate, and 'None of these' is correct because none of the given words fit properly. Therefore, the correct answer is 'D' (None of these), with the phrase 'in spite of the consequences' being the proper completion.

All the words 'Visionary', 'Virtuoso', and 'Vigor' are spelled correctly. Therefore, the correct answer is 'None of these'.

Option D correctly converts the active sentence into a passive form with proper grammar and word order: 'Grass is not eaten by a lion, however hungry he may be.' The other options contain grammatical errors or awkward phrasing.

The word 'inconspicuous' means not easily noticed or attracting attention, which fits the context of dressing in a gray suit to blend in. 'Conspecious' is a misspelling of 'conspicuous,' which means attracting attention, the opposite of the intended meaning. Therefore, option A is correct.

The correct verb to agree with the singular subject 'gift' is 'is'. The sentence should read: 'For his novelty, the gift ordered to me is very lovely.' 'Was' and 'were' are past tense and do not fit the present context, and 'None of these' is incorrect since 'is' is correct.

Hermann Hesse is the author of the novel "Siddhartha," which explores the spiritual journey of self-discovery of a man named Siddhartha during the time of the Gautama Buddha.

The conjunction 'Whereas' is used to contrast two different facts or preferences, making it the correct choice to connect the two clauses about Shabnam and Chelsea's drink preferences.

The word 'vivacious' means lively and spirited. The antonym is 'sober,' which can mean serious or subdued, fitting as the opposite of lively. 'Notorious' means famous for something bad and is unrelated as an antonym.

The word 'infallible' means incapable of making mistakes or being wrong. The antonym is 'erring,' which means making errors or mistakes. While 'dubious' and 'untrustworthy' relate to doubt and reliability, they do not directly mean making mistakes.

The word 'transparent' in this context means clear and easy to understand, which aligns with the meaning of 'lucid'. Therefore, 'lucid' is the correct synonym for 'transparent' here.
