Choose the word or set of words that, when inserted in the sentence, best fits the meaning of the sentence as a whole.
To believe that social reforms can ------- evil altogether is to forget that evil is a protean creature, forever assuming a new ------- when deprived of an old one.
A. rejuvenate . . allegiance
B. eradicate . . shape
C. mitigate . . providence
D. sustain . . episode
E. dissolve . . abstraction
Correct Answer: B
Heres Why:
The phrase is to forget implies that the belief described in the first part of the sentence is misguided or nave. It makes sense to argue that the assumption that reforms can eradicate, or eliminate, all societal evils is overly idealistic because evil is protean, or capable of taking on a new shape.
