Correct Answer: futility


Solution : The second option is the correct answer.

Futility refers to the quality of being ineffective or incapable of producing any useful result. This word best fits the context, as it implies the pointlessness or lack of success in blocking highways.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Impotence refers to the lack of power or ability.
  • Scorch means to burn or char the surface.
  • Incompatibility is the state of being incompatible or unable to exist or work together.
Therefore, the complete sentence is: Sir, can you reflect on the usefulness or futility of blocking all the highways?
