Q:

Read the following passage and complete the paragraph with the help of correct options given below.
Working overseas is always a challenge for any professional and if you are an Indian, always strive to give-your best as Indians have always been considered intelligent, hardworking, talented and spiritual.
Working overseas was something many Indians desired but few achieved until the information technology boom opened several white-collar job opportunities for them in global markets. However, securing employment abroad may be an achievement but retaining it is quite a challenge as a professional requires constant demonstration of professionalism and exact the standards of competence.

A) Indians have always excelled in a competitive working environment. B) This makes them more enjoyable company.
C) Indians have always tried to bring out their best in competitive working environment. D) Indians are hard-working, competitive and professional employees.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Indians have always excelled in a competitive working environment.

Explanation:

Choice A is correct as it matches with the flow after a statement praising the professionalism of Indians, it is only logical to mention their excellence of working in a competitive environment. It also keeps up with the tone and general subject of the passage. Option 2 is a bad choice as it talks about being in their company which is not relevant in the context of the paragraph and therefore is incorrect as it is beyond the general theme. Option 3 is overall correct but we as we have to choose the best option so we have to cancel out on 3. Option 4 is obviously a lengthy reproduction of the sentence preceding the blank. As for option 5, it is incorrect as the statement does not keep up with the flow of the paragraph. Neither does it logically follow the previous sentence nor is it related to the next sentence.
