It is interesting to note that science is (i) $\(\qquad\)$ American political leadership, while religion comes easy to them. Hence, the glaring difference in response to the two events, 'Faith Forum', a platform to project the religious allegiances and convictions of the presidential candidates and 'National Science and Technology Summit', which focuses on R \& D in Science in the US. This disparity is a (ii) $\(\qquad\)$ as it is likely to influence the outcome of elections and make it a (iii) $\(\qquad\)$ in which the heart rules.
| Blank (i) | Blank (ii) | Blank (iii) |
|---|---|---|
| A. not the forte of | D. slippery situation | G. speculative theory |
| B. a piece of cake for | E. cause for concern | H. subjective affair |

The phrase "religion comes easy to them" along with "while" which acts as a thought contrastor here, suggests that science does not easily come to the political leadership. Therefore, the choice for the first blank is not the forte of.
The fact that the next sentence talks about the "glaring difference in response to the two events", further confirms our choice for the first blank.
The third blank is subjective affair because of the phrase "in which the heart rules".
The lack of scientific thinking in the leadership, which is swayed by emotional topics such as religion should be a cause for concern, and hence that is the right choice for the second blank.

OFFICIAL EXPLANATION
The use of 'while' in the first sentence suggests that the missing word in the first blank should be a contrast to the idea that 'religion comes easy to American political leaders'. Therefore 'not the forte of' is the right answer choice in blank 1. The missing word in blank 2 should provide description for what 'the disparity' means 'as it is likely to influence the outcome of elections'. Thus 'cause for concern' is the best choice. Thus, the answer is $\(\mathrm{A}, \mathrm{E}, \mathrm{H}\)$.
