Fill Blanks

Question:

Select the most appropriate word to fill in the blank.

Have you checked if we have ______ information about the location?

Options:

inadequate

profuse

insufficient

sufficient

Correct Answer:

sufficient

Explanation:

The most appropriate word to fill in the blank is:sufficient

Explanation:
The sentence is asking whether there is enough or an adequate amount of information about the location. "Sufficient" means enough or satisfactory for a particular purpose. Therefore, in the context of the sentence, "sufficient" fits best to inquire about whether there is enough information available.

  • Inadequate means not enough, which is the opposite of what you'd want.
  • Profuse means plentiful or abundant, which suggests more information than you might need.
  • Insufficient also means not enough, similar to inadequate.
