Fill Blanks

Question:

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.

Beautiful red roses ______ the bride's hair.

Options:

adorned

allured

attracted

adjourned

Correct Answer:

adorned

Explanation:

The most appropriate word to fill in the blank is:

adorned

Explanation for all options:

  1. Adorned: This word means to decorate or enhance something with ornaments or embellishments. In the context of the sentence, "adorned" fits well as it describes how the beautiful red roses are used to decorate the bride's hair.

  2. Allured: This word means to attract or entice someone by charm or appeal. While roses can be alluring in a metaphorical sense, it doesn't fit the context of physically being placed in the bride's hair.

  3. Attracted: This word means to draw something towards oneself due to a magnetic or appealing force. It's not suitable in the context of placing roses in the bride's hair.

  4. Adjourned: This word means to postpone or suspend a meeting or session, and it does not make sense in the context of decorating the bride's hair with roses.
