‘want’ will be used in blank space because ‘to be free’ can not be used with any of the other option verbs (auxiliary verbs). It presents an individual wish.
Option C is the most apt word. Harmonize means to make consistent or compatible.
Elixir is a magical or medicinal potion. It fits the given context most suitably.
‘run’ should be used to fill the given blank. It is the only option that draws out the intended meaning of the statement.
‘cast away’ is a phrase which means to discard or to abandon. It is contextually the most suitable filler.
The former part of the sentence mentions 'worries', hence it can be ruled out. Options A and D are positive words, hence do not fit in contextually. Nervousness is the most suitable filler.
The given words have a negative context, hence 'joy' will not fit in. Mercy and paining do not fit in either because of the kind of words used in the part of the sentence that required a filler. ‘despair’ which means the complete loss or absence of hope is the most suitable response.
'Continue' is the most suitable response. The part of the sentence means that if one doesn't leave behind the sorrows and worries and keeps on sticking to them.....
'Unhealthy' is the most suitable response to keep the statement in sync with the context.
‘laid up with sickness' is the most suitable response to complete the sentence meaningfully.
