Answer Details
The question is asking to choose the best option to complete the gap in the sentence "If you have just bought a new car, it is advisable to undertake a ____ policy than a ____ for more risks are covered in the former than in the ____." The sentence is talking about insurance policies, and it suggests that a certain type of policy is better for a new car. From the context, we can infer that the missing word in the first gap should be an adjective that describes a policy that covers more risks than the alternative. Option A, "comprehensive," fits this description and is a commonly used term in the insurance industry. The second gap refers to an alternative policy, and the only option that fits this description is "third-party." The third gap refers back to the former policy, and the best option to complete this gap is "latter," which means the second of two things that have been mentioned. Therefore, the answer is A, "comprehensive."
