GATE CSE 2022 | GA | Question: 1

Question

The ____________ is too high for it to be considered _____________.

• A. fair / fare
• B. faer / fair
• C. fare / fare
• D. fare / fair

Comments

• Fare: Money paid for a journey on public transport (bus fare, train fare, airfare).

• Fair: Just, equitable, reasonable, or unbiased.

The sentence perfectly balances them:

"The fare [ticket price] is too high for it to be considered fair [reasonable/just]."

When fare is used as a verb, it means to progress, get along, or succeed in a specific situation.

Think of it as a formal way of asking or describing how someone is doing or how something turned out.

If you can replace the word fare with "get along", "do", or "progress" and the sentence still makes sense, it's being used as a verb!

Idiom Note: You might also see it in the classic phrase "farewell", which literally translates to an old-school wish for someone to "fare well" (progress safely) on a journey.
