Question

In the passage below, some words have been highlighted in bold. Choose the most appropriate option to replace each bolded word to make the paragraph meaningful. Soil degradation remains one of the most (1) negligible challenges of modern agriculture. Decades of intensive ploughing and chemical dependency have (2) enhanced soil erosion and depleted its organic content. In response, researchers advocate a system of regenerative farming that (3) disregards nature’s existing cycles. They suggest that farmers mimic natural processes—using cover crops, crop rotation, and biological compost—to restore fertility. Interestingly, in certain regions, termite mounds have become models of (4) fragility, revealing how underground ecosystems can recycle nutrients efficiently. However, this transformation requires not just technological innovation but also a mental shift: to see the soil not as an inert medium but as a (5) sterile community of living organisms that demands respect. Sustainable farming, then, becomes less about dominance and more about (6) obliteration of balance. Which can replace word (2)?
