Let's understand the meaning of the given words:

Disjointed= not connected or not described in a logical way.

E.g.: The evidence produced in the court is disjointed and sometimes contradictory.

Sharp = having a fine edge

Abrupt = sudden and unexpected

Soft = not stiff

Connected = things that are linked with each other

E.g.: They do not believe that the incidents are connected.

Hence, option D is the correct answer.

Oblivion= being unaware of what is happening around.

Nascence= Coming into existence for the first time.

Exegesis= critical explanation of a text.

Naivete= Lack of sophistication or worldliness.

Hence,option Cis the correct answer.

The idiom "out of date" means too old to be used; not current.

e.g. My bus pass is out of date - I'll have to go buy a new one.

Hence, option C is the correct answer.

Option B has the grammatically incorrect part. 

• If the subject is connected with, ‘along with’, ‘accompanied by’, ‘as well as’, etc. then the verb will agree with the 1st subject only.
• For example:
  • Ram, along with his parents, goes to the local temple every Tuesday.
  • Ram, accompanied by his parents, goes to the local temple every Tuesday.
  • Ram, as well as his parents, goes to the local temple every Tuesday.

• In this question, ‘Arun’ is a singular subject; so the verb must be singular too.

• But the verb "are" is plural, hence is incorrect.

• Therefore, replace "are going" with "is going" to make the sentence grammatically sound.

The correct sentence will be: Arun, along with his brothers, is going to the nearest market to sell their cattle.

The given sentence is of direct speech because it quotes actual words. Follow the rules given below to change it to indirect speech:

• The reporting verb ‘said’ will be changed to ‘told’ as all the options have the object ‘me’ after it.

• We notice that the reporting verb is in the past tense (‘said’).
  So, a change will be made in the tense of the reported speech. The present perfect tense (have made) is changed to the past perfect tense (had made).

• The first-person pronoun "I" will change according to the subject (Aanya) to "she".
• The second-person pronoun "you" will change to "me".

Therefore, the sentence in Indirect Speech will be :- Aanya told me that she had made a rose and honey vanilla dessert for me.

Hence, option C is the correct answer.

Let's first see the meanings of the given words:

Tough = to a rough person or something strong enough to withstand adverse conditions.

Thought = to an idea made up by thinking.

Though = despite the fact that or although.

Through = as a result of.

• The blank needs a preposition. 
• Only "through" is a preposition here and it fits well in the sentence grammatically. 

Hence,option Dis the correct answer.

Let us understand the meaning of the given words :-

Than = a preposition used for comparison.

There = to that (particular) place or position.

That = used as a pronoun to identify a particular person or thing.

Then = to at that time referring to a certain time or to refer to after something like an adverb

• "Then" is the correct word for the blank as the sentence after the blank talks about what happens next, i.e. they exclude other things.  

Hence, option C is the correct answer.

Let us understand the meaning of the given words :-

Habit = to a regular practice that is hard to give up.

Habits = the plural form of ‘habit’ referring to many such regular practices.

Habitual = an adjective of habit referring to something done as a habit.

Habitually = it is an adverb that means - by the way of habit and fits in the passage perfectly, referring to things done by the way of our habits.

• The given blank needs an adverb.
• Thus, "habitually" fits in the blank perfectly.

Hence,option D is the correct answer.

Let us understand the meaning of the given words :-

From = the point at which a journey or event starts.

For = to something intended.

Of = expresses the relationship between a part and a whole.

Form = to the shape of something or a particular way in which something exists, referring to the habits here.

• The subject 'we' requires a verb after it. 
• Only "form" is a verb. 

Hence,option Bis the correct answer.

• The passage is about habits that we adopt at an early age. Those habits then become a part of our life. 
• Thus, the word "youth" which means the period of your life when you are young, or the state of being young is perfect for the blank. 

Hence,option D is the correct answer.
