Fill Blanks

Question:

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.

If you want to save your money, start living an ______ life.

Options:

improper

economical

extravagant

indulgent

Correct Answer:

economical

Explanation:

The most appropriate option to fill in the blank is:

economical

The sentence would read: "If you want to save your money, start living an economical life."

Explanation: "Economical" means using resources efficiently and frugally, especially with regard to money. In the context of wanting to save money, living an economical life aligns with the idea of being thrifty and making efficient choices. The other options don't fit the context as well:

  • Improper: This word means not conforming to accepted standards or rules, and it doesn't convey the idea of saving money.

  • Extravagant: This word means spending money excessively or wastefully, which is the opposite of saving money.

  • Indulgent: This word means allowing oneself to enjoy pleasurable activities or items, often without restraint, which contradicts the idea of saving money.
