Unity, people

Emancipation, slaves

Freedom, employees

Tyrannical, slaves

Slavery, slaves

Solution:

Right Answer (2)
'Emancipation' basically means freeing someone from slavery and 'proclamation' means public or official announcement.  So obviously, if it 'emancipation' is announced, it means that the 'slaves' are freed (past tense form of 'free'.) 

Q.2 Pick out the most effective words from the given words to fill in the blank to make the sentence meaningfully complete. 
Robin finally set sail and started his long _____in conquest of finding the_____ where the hidden treasure was apparently located. 

journey, island

tryst, stone

march,Land

drive, road

Path Room

Solution:

Right Answer (1)
The words 'set sail' indicate that Robin is traveling through water (probably using a boat/ship).  Hence, the words 'march ', 'drive' and 'path' (all of which denote a journey by road) are wrong.  The word 'tryst' means a meeting place' , which, in the present context, is incorrect.  Only the words 'journey and 'island ' make the sentence completed and meaningful.
