Daily Vocabulary from International Newspapers (16 August 2025): DAILY QUIZ

1. In political science discourse, the term “regimes” most accurately refers to:

"Regimes" in political science refers broadly to systems of governance that encompass the rules, institutions, and practices through which political authority is exercised, regardless of whether they are democratic or authoritarian. This term is neutral and descriptive rather than inherently pejorative. Option A is incorrect because regimes can be democratic as well as authoritarian. Option C is too narrow, focusing only on military dictatorships. Option D confuses regimes with international organizations or alliances. Option E describes provisional governments, which is only one specific type of regime.

2. The ancient oak stood riven by lightning, its massive trunk bearing the scars of nature’s fury. Which word best captures the meaning of “riven” in this context?

"Riven" means split apart or torn asunder, often violently or forcefully, making "cleaved" the most accurate synonym. The word suggests deep division or splitting, typically caused by external force. Option A (strengthened) is the opposite of what riven means. Option C (adorned) suggests decoration rather than damage. Option D (sheltered) implies protection, which contradicts the destructive nature of being riven. Option E (nourished) suggests growth and health, completely opposite to the violent splitting that "riven" describes.

3. The art critic’s review was _______ in its assessment, sparing no detail in exposing the exhibition’s fundamental flaws and the curator’s poor judgment.

"Brutal" in this context means harshly direct and uncompromising in criticism, without regard for feelings or sensitivities. The phrase "sparing no detail in exposing fundamental flaws" indicates a ruthlessly thorough and severe critique. Option B (superficial) contradicts the thoroughness described. Option C (ambiguous) suggests unclear criticism, opposite to the direct exposure mentioned. Option D (complimentary) contradicts the negative nature of exposing flaws. Option E (tentative) suggests hesitancy, which conflicts with the unsparing nature of the review described.

4. In the context of modern corporate restructuring, executives often find themselves _______ sensitive information between departments while maintaining strict confidentiality protocols.

"Ferrying" means to transport or carry something from one place to another, often repeatedly or as part of a regular service. In this corporate context, it captures the careful, deliberate movement of sensitive information between departments while maintaining security. Option A (concealing) suggests hiding rather than transporting. Option C (broadcasting) implies wide distribution, opposite to the confidential nature described. Option D (manufacturing) means creating information rather than transporting existing information. Option E (destroying) contradicts the idea of moving information between departments.

5. The senator’s conduct throughout the investigation was so _______ that even his harshest critics acknowledged his integrity and transparency.

"Irreproachable" means beyond criticism or reproach, making it the perfect antonym for "scandalous." The context indicates that even critics acknowledged the senator's integrity, suggesting behavior that was completely above reproach rather than scandalous (shocking or morally offensive). Option A (scandalous) would create a contradiction with critics acknowledging integrity. Option C (questionable) suggests doubt rather than the certainty implied by acknowledged integrity. Option D (controversial) indicates disputed behavior, not the universally acknowledged integrity described. Option E (suspicious) suggests grounds for distrust, contradicting the transparency mentioned.
