  • (A) We enjoyed our vacation. It was so ____.

    • The most fitting adjective for an enjoyable vacation is (III) relaxing.

  • (B) Since I had a really _____ breakfast, I can easily skip lunch.

    • A breakfast that allows you to skip lunch would be substantial and rich, so (I) sumptuous (meaning splendid and expensive-looking, or rich and luxurious) is the best fit.

  • (C) I want to go to a retreat for a while. The music at the wedding was so ____.

    • If someone wants a retreat because of the music, the music must have been loud, harsh, or unpleasant. (IV) cacophonous (meaning a harsh, discordant mixture of sounds) is the perfect word.

  • (D) I am very grateful to them for their _______ support.

    • When expressing gratitude for support, "unwavering" implies consistent and firm support. (II) unwavering is the most appropriate choice.
