    Question

    Choose the correct word to complete the sentence:
    I think Oka (rind strong-smelling cheese) is a bit too _______________ for a cheese plate, as it can overpower the other selections.

    A.

    bland

    B.

    D.

    insipid

    Correct option is B

    The correct word to complete the sentence is pungent. Explanation: "Pungent" is used to describe a strong, sharp, and often unpleasant smell or taste. Since Oka cheese is a strong-smelling cheese, "pungent" appropriately conveys that its smell could overpower other cheeses on a plate.
    Correct word: Pungent (तीव्र गंध वाला)
    Use in a sentence: The pungent smell of the cheese was noticeable as soon as we entered the room.
    Meanings of the other options:
    bland: lacking in strong flavor or characteristics.
    subtle: delicate or understated, not strong or overpowering.
    insipid: tasteless or lacking in character.
