PP2 verbal section 1

[Tishi]

I think one of the answers of number six question of PP2 is wrong. How can apathy and passivity equivalent to each other? Shouldn’t it be “apathy and insincerity”

?

[ganesh]

What do you think apathy means?

[Tishi]

Indifference,not enthusiastic

[Tishi]

I’m actually confused with both passivity/impassivity. Isn’t impassivity supposed to be indifferent?

[ganesh]

passive means “doesn’t care or act” so it can convey the same meaning in a sentence as “apathetic” here

[Tishi]

Both passivity and impassivity imply the same meaning, that why’s I’m getting puzzled.

Thanks,btw.

[ganesh]

I think they are similar, so I understand why it’s confusing
