Correct option - 5

Let's find out the meaning of following words:-

Alluring - powerfully and mysteriously attractive or fascinating; seductive.

Enticing - attractive or tempting; alluring.

Absurd - wildly unreasonable, illogical, or inappropriate; stupid; ridiculous.

Paradox - a seemingly absurd or contradictory statement or proposition which when investigated may prove to be well founded or true.

Nascent  - something that just coming into existence and beginning to display signs of future potential.

Refurbished - renovate and redecorate something, especially a building.

Word "prospective" means likely to happen at a future date; probable. And, premium is an amount to be paid for a contract of insurance. Since, 30 percent is a huge amount. Hence, giving such big amount for insurance purpose is beneficial in long term. Hence, I and II give the appropriate meaning to the blank. Thus, option 5 i.e. I & II is the correct answer.
