Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word:-
He is so _____ that he hates to get up to even open the door.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → lethargic
Complete sentence: He is so lethargic that he hates to get up to even open the door. A man who hates to get up even to open the door is too lazy to move, so lethargic fits the sentence.
| Word | Meaning | Example |
|---|---|---|
| (1) immobile | not moving or unable to move (the man can move – he just does not want to – so the sentence is about laziness, not inability) | After the accident, his leg was kept immobile in a plaster. |
| (2) lethargic (answer) | lazy and lacking energy, unwilling to make any effort | The heat made everyone feel lethargic after lunch. |
| (3) resolute | firm and determined (it does not explain hating to get up) | She was resolute in her decision to study medicine. |
| (4) alert | watchful and quick to act (the opposite of what the sentence describes) | The alert guard spotted the thief at once. |
