Correct Answer: focuses


Solution : The correct choice is the third option .

The correct word to fill in the blank is "focuses" . This word aligns with the context of emphasising what the subject (presumably "it" refers to the educational system or process) concentrates on or centres its efforts upon.

  • Regards : This word means to view or consider something in a particular way.
  • Makes : This word refers to the act of causing something to happen or creating something.
  • Changes : This word signifies altering or modifying something.

So, the complete sentence would be: "It thus focuses on the cultivation of skills, trades, or professions."
