Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.
The contingent managed to _______ successfully.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The most appropriate option to fill in the blank is close the deal.
The phrase "close the deal" means to finalize an agreement or a contract. In this context, it means that the contingent was able to finalize the agreement and make the deal happen.
The other options do not make sense in the context of the sentence.
- "Park the deal" means to temporarily put aside an agreement or a contract. It does not make sense to say that the contingent parked the deal successfully.
- "Heal the deal" means to repair an agreement or a contract that is in trouble. It does not make sense to say that the contingent healed the deal successfully.
- "Catch the deal" means to get involved in an agreement or a contract. It does not make sense to say that the contingent caught the deal successfully.
