Fill Blanks

Question:

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.

My teacher asked me to keep _____.

Options:

quiet

quite

quit

quaint

Correct Answer:

quiet

Explanation:

The most appropriate option to fill in the blank is quiet.

The word "quiet" means to be silent or not make a noise. It is the most appropriate word to use in this context, as it conveys the meaning of the teacher asking the student to be silent.

The other options are not as appropriate.

  • Quite means to a moderate or satisfactory degree. This is not the right word to use, as it does not make sense to say that the teacher asked the student to be quite.
  • Quit means to stop doing something. This is not the right word to use, as it does not make sense to say that the teacher asked the student to quit.
  • Quaint means old-fashioned or charming in a slightly old-fashioned way. This is not the right word to use, as it does not make sense to say that the teacher asked the student to be quaint.
