A) Solely
B) Strongest
C) Undisputed
D) Full
E) Controversial

Answer 1

Hint:To answer this question one should know the meaning of all the options to get the best fit in the sentence.

Complete Answer: To get the answer let us look into the options.
>Option A) Solely is the correct answer because solely means he is the only one responsible and not involving anyone. Thus, this is the correct option.
>Option B) Strongest is not the correct answer because strongest means having the power to move heavy weights or physically strong. This word does not fit in the sentence. The sentence does not talk about Vinayak's physical capability. Hence, this is the wrong option.
>Option C) Undisputed is not the correct answer. Undisputed means not disputed as per the sentence Vinayak’s authority was never questioned. Thus, this is not the correct option.
>Option D) Full is not the correct answer because it does not fit in the sentence. Full means containing or holding or having no empty space. The word full does not express it’s meaning in the sentence and hence is an incorrect option.
>Option E) Controversial is again the incorrect answer because the meaning of the sentence does not give any meaning relating to giving rise or likely to give rise to controversies or public disagreement in the family. Thus, this option is wrong.

Hence option ‘A’ is the correct answer.

Note: It is very important to understand what the sentence is trying to convey and according to that we have to choose the best word to complete the sentence that makes the best meaning. So the complete sentence is: Vinayak is the sole of the family and commands a lot of respect from the family members.
