    indelible is something unforgettable/unerasable..to forget is it's antonym. Similarly, incorrigible means something which cannot be corrected/ improved upon, hence does not agree to being corrected. Hence D. This choice comes somewhat near compared to other choices.

    Astounding is something bewildering/dumbfounding & expect is anticipating something. I dont see any connecting bridge of opposites in this.

    Hence, would still support D.

    "Fear less,hope more; whine less,breathe more;
    Talk less,work more; hate less,love more;
    Then all the good things are yours ."

    ok..
    manasi, i have pp2 open wit me...and im tellin u its choice 'b'
    INDELIBLE-something that cant be erased or forgotten
    so the bridge would be
    we cant forget something characteristed as indelible
    along the same lines, we cant expect something characterised as astounding(because by its defntn, its bewildering and it is going to take u by surprise)
    but d cant work cuz
    then it would have to be
    we cant agree on something charactrised as incorrigible but thats not true,
    its only the person who is characterised as incorrigible who wont agree
    hope im makin sense...

    something indelible is not easily forgotten
    something astounding is not usually expected

    something/somebody incorrigible is not easily controlled/managed/corrected - agree doesn't fit in.

    astounding is something that is not expected.

    For sure B. Something that is incorrigible usually can't be corrected or reformed not agreed.

    astounding is something that is not expected while indelible is something not forgettable.
