Choose the most suitable word to complete the below sentences:

Initial estimates for India's external trade performance in May are a ______ of even tougher times ahead.

  • A.harbinger
  • B.withholder
  • C.contraindication
  • D.incognizance

Answer: A

A harbinger is a sign that something is coming, so initial estimates that are poor can be called a harbinger of even tougher times ahead. A 'withholder' is one who holds something back, 'contraindication' is a medical term for a reason against giving a treatment, and 'incognizance' means a lack of awareness, so none of them fits the sense of a forecast. The answer is harbinger, option A.
