Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation: The correct choice is pressing because it expresses an urgent need.
Why pressing is correct: Pressing means requiring quick or immediate action; it conveys the urgency felt by nations after the First World War to establish a world peace organization.
Why preceding is incorrect: Preceding means previous or prior, which does not convey urgency and does not fit the intended meaning.
Why incidental is incorrect: Incidental means minor or secondary; it suggests something unimportant, not the urgent necessity implied here.
Why conventional is incorrect: Conventional means traditional or usual; it does not express the urgent, critical need indicated by the context.
Complete sentence: The nations of the world, after the first world war, realized the pressing necessity for a world peace organization.
