Fill Blanks

Question:

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.

He always ____ a tantrum about something or the other.

Options:

through

threw

tough

true

Correct Answer:

threw

Explanation:

The most appropriate option to fill in the blank is threw.

The sentence is about the person always throwing a tantrum. The word "threw" is the past tense of the verb "throw", which means to propel something through the air with force. It is the most appropriate word to use in this context because it describes how the person is always having an outburst of anger.

The other options are not as appropriate.

  • Through means "from one side to the other" or "completely". This does not make sense in the context of the sentence because the person is not throwing something through something else.
  • Tough means "hard" or "difficult". This does not make sense in the context of the sentence because the person is not being difficult, they are having an outburst of anger.
  • True means "in accordance with fact" or "accurate". This does not make sense in the context of the sentence because the person is not being accurate, they are having an outburst of anger.
