Read the passage below and answer the questions that follow:
Harold a professional man who had worked in an office for many years had a fearful dream. In it, he found himself in a land where small slug-like animals with slimy tentacles lived on people's bodies. The people tolerated the loathsome creatures because after many years they grew into elephants which then became the nation's system of transport, carrying everyone wherever he wanted to go. Harold suddenly realised that he himself was covered with these things, and he woke up screaming. In a vivid sequence of pictures this dream dramatised for Harold what he had never been able to put in to words; he saw himself as letting society feed on his body in his early years so that it would carry him when he retired. He later threw off the "security bug" and took up freelance work.

Question 8 : Which one of the following phrases best helps to bring out the precise meaning of 'loathsome creatures'?

1. Security bug and slimy tentacles
2. Fearful dream and slug-like animals
3. Slimy tentacles and slug-like animals
4. slug-like animals and security bug

Explanatory Answer

‘Loathsome' is disgust or extreme hatred of someone/something. We are looking for imageries that express this disgust. In option A and D, ‘security bug' does not qualify as a description of loathe. In option B, ‘fearful dream' is more of an expression of horror than of disgust. ‘Slimy' and ‘slug-like' give us the complete sense of disgust.

The question is "Which one of the following phrases best helps to bring out the precise meaning of 'loathsome creatures'?"

Hence, the answer is Slimy tentacles and slug-like animals

Choice c is the correct answer
