    Solutions
    ‘Trends’ means a general direction in which something is developing or changing. The inclusion of “technology” in conservation and management of wildlife has helped wildlife to develop and have authentic data.
    Currents, shifts and curve are incorrect terms as they do not tell any progress and are not relevant to “technology”.
    Hence, option B is the correct option.

    Solutions
    “Camera traps” helps to record the movement of the tiger and this gives ‘evidence’ or proof of the presence of the tiger.
    Other terms like surmise, authentication and allegation are not relatable to “camera traps”. Hence, option A is the correct option.
    Meanings of the given words are:
    Surmise = suppose that something is true without having evidence to confirm it.
    Allegation = a claim or assertion that someone has done something illegal or wrong, typically one made without proof.
    Authentication = the process or action of proving or showing something to be true, genuine, or valid.

    Select the most appropriate option to fill in blank No (3).

    Solutions
    By reading the above passage one can easily find out that reason of tiger deaths are unknown. So, here the word ‘mystery’ is correct to use because it means to something that is difficult or impossible to understand or explain.
    Options like challenge, reason and knot are incorrect/ inappropriate here.  
    Challenge = a call to someone to participate in a competitive situation or fight to decide who is superior in terms of ability or strength
    Reason = a cause, explanation, or justification for an action or event
    Knot = a fastening made by looping a piece of string, rope, or something similar on itself and tightening it. These all terms are not correct in reference to the above text.
    Hence, option D is the correct option.

    Hence, option A is the correct option.

    Solutions
    “Keep an eye” in the later part of the sentence gives us the hint that ‘surveillance’ must come in the blank.
    ‘Surveillance’ means the function of watching or guarding.
    Options like large, protecting and development are incorrect as they do not help to “keep an eye” or guard.
    Hence, option C is the correct option.
