Question: 197

2. Jesuit institutions are ------ on principles that are committed to academic excellence and that ------ coordinated collaboration and shared resources.

  • A. dependent … dispute
  • B. determined … deter
  • C. founded … advocate
  • D. razed … condemn

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

The answer is C

The first blank must reflect that Jesuit institutions have certain principles, whereas the second blank must reflect that the institutions are committed to those principles, requiring founded (created an organization) and advocate (argue for) as the answer.

Do one blank at a time. The second blank, which might seem easier, must relate to the fact that Jesuit institutions are committed to certain principles, so you can eliminate choice (A), as well as choices (B) and (D) if you know the words. The second blank must relate the fact that the institutions have those principles, so eliminate choice (D) if you know the word. You may need to guess after eliminating.
