Cloze Test:

Cloze Test primarily meant to test a candidate’s knowledge of comprehension with regard to grammar, usage and vocabulary.

The blanks are numbered which are to be filled in with the most suitable alternatives.

Directions:

In the following passage there are blanks each of which has been numbered. These numbers are printed below the passage and against each five words are suggested, one of which fills the blanks appropriately. Find out the appropriate word in each case.

Rainforests are also a home and __(8)__ of income for a huge number of people in Africa, Asia and South America. __(9)__ this, economic pressures frequently drive both logical communities and national governments in the developing world to __(10)__ these forests in ways that are unsustainable, clear-cutting vast areas for fuel, timber, mining or agricultural land.
