Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.
The patient was __________ from the hospital.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The most appropriate option to fill in the blank is discharged.
The word "discharged" means to officially release someone from a hospital or other institution. It is the most appropriate option in this context because it conveys the idea that the patient is no longer a patient and is free to go home.
The other options do not make sense in the context of the sentence.
- "Liberated" means to free someone from something, but it is not commonly used in the context of a hospital.
- "Let out" can mean to release someone from something, but it is not as formal as "discharged".
- "Released" can also mean to let someone go, but it is not as specific as "discharged".
