OFFICIAL EXPLANATION


The text states that 'industrial societies have evolved highly formal systems of wills' and these words suggest that the missing word in the first blank should refer to 'informal systems'. Thus, 'unstructured' best fits blank1. The words 'no outside' which precede blank 2 and the words 'hordes of lawyers' which follow the blank suggest that 'intervention' best fits in blank 2. Though 'interference' also means the same, it is a stronger word than intervention. But the context in the text does not require such a strong word. The words 'what once was more of a routine family matter' suggest that the missing word in blank 3 gives a description of the 'authorities' who have confounded the 'whole issue'. Thus, 'extra- familial' (outside the family) best fits in blank 3. Thus, the answer is $\(\mathrm{A}, \mathrm{E}, \mathrm{H}\)$.
