If you use logic and a dictionary, you should be able to answer correctly in each instance. The prompt infers whether the words should be positive or negative and knowing the definition of the words should make it clear which is the correct response. While you are not on the spot, use the time to look up he words and check if your inferences are appropriate with the answer key.

 

Most importantly, you will never see a question like this on the GMAT.

2.turgid , languor

3. limited , inadequate

I'm no expert, but I agree with your answers for 1 and 2. Your choice for number 3 is not one of the four offered. I would suggest the answer to number 3 is VAST and WIDE since the company's service is reported to be excellent.

 

Why are these questions being asked in a GMAT forum? This type of question would never appear on the GMAT. I hope that mahnoor is studying for the exam that he/she is actually taking!

Agree with eventualprof. These questions are asked in GRE-Text completion (May be). This thread should be moved to GRE forum.I think the answer to Q3 should be "vast & wide". Since 'Not only...but also' must be parallel in emotions, and both (a) and (b) describe abt company's excellence hence both words must be positive, so "vast & wide" must be correct.
