Football evokes a _ response in India compared to cricket, that almost _ the nation.

A)

tepid, boiling

B)

turbid, fascinating

C)

lukewarm, electrifies

D)

apocryphal, genuinely fascinates

Correct Answer : lukewarm, electrifies

We know that in India, cricket is much more popular than football, so how football affects or provokes a reaction amongst Indians should be nothing or very less when compared with cricket’s popularity. Option (C) is right, because ‘lukewarm’ means mild or ‘the state of showing less enthusiasm or interest’, and electrifies is what ‘excites intensely’. These words fit perfectly in the given context.
