Choose the correct option to fill in the blank spaces in the given sentences.
The conspirators met __________ in order to plot a(n) __________ against the oppressive governance of Julius Caesar.
Explanation:
The key to finding the word for the first blank lies in the word “plot” which indicates ‘a plan made in secret by a group of people to do something illegal or harmful’. Thus, only “clandestinely” meaning ‘secretly’ qualifies for the blank. “Referendum” meaning ‘a vote in which all the people in a country or an area are asked to give their opinion about ‘, “invocation” meaning ‘the action of invoking someone or something’ and “upheaval” meaning ‘violent or sudden change or disruption to something’ cannot be plotted and can be eliminated. Hence, the correct answer is option 2.
