B) such that
C) such as those of
D) No improvement
Solution:
Ans (c): ‘Such as those of’ should  replace the underlined part in order to improve the sentence. The   use of ‘those of’ is must, as the talk is about the governments of the two countries, not the countries per se. All the other options are invalid.

Dear Student,

Focus on One Word Substitution and Idioms & Phrases. A lot of questions get repeated from these 2 areas. Grammar (Around 10 questions) is less important as compared to English usage (Remaining 40 questions). Other than sentence improvement and sentence error spotting questions, rest all is English usage. Vocabulary is the Game Changer. Questions on Synonyms, Antonyms, One Word Substitution and even Fill in the Blanks (to a large extent) can be tackled only when you have strong vocabulary. Even correct or incorrect spelling questions can be attempted fairly easily if you have strong vocabulary. Only when you understand words can you understand the meaning of a reading comprehension passage.
